Welcome, I'm Donna!

Writer | Traveler | foodie | Mother

I’m a Gen X mom of four, a Marvel geek, wine nerd, writer, and creator of Dangerous Cupcake, a Southern California lifestyle blog about wellness in midlife. As my kids enter different stages of their lives, I get to do the same — learn a new instrument, get out and have fun, love Disney, try new adventures, and not let my age define anything. This stage of life is pretty amazing. I love being mom, wife AND Grammy, and midlife isn’t a bad word. Join me in changing focus and enjoying life during our next phase, without totally starting over. However you do it, life is short, live a little dangerously.

Ready for a fresh new take on a spicy margarita? T Ready for a fresh new take on a spicy margarita? Try the new Elevated Mixers Limited Edition Spicy Mango Mix! It’s perfect if you want a tangy marg with a spicy kick! This mixer is a blend of chamoy, lime, mango, fiery Chile, and organic agave, with just enough sweet to balance the heat. Shake it up with your favorite tequila, or if you’re like me and want to add an additional level of smoke, use mezcal. The recipe I use is simple: 2 oz Spicy Mango Margarita Mix 2 oz Mezcal (I used El Silencio) 1 oz Mango-Orange Passionfruit Juice Quick squeeze of lime juice Throw it all in a shaker with a bunch of ice and pour into a rocks glass. If you want to take it up a notch, rim your glass in Tajin and drop in a slice or two of frozen jalapeños. (Steal from your stash if you like the new trend of Spicy Sauvignon Blanc!) Head over to https://elevatedmixers.com/DANGERCUPCAKE to use my code for a discount! (Or use code DANGERCUPCAKE at purchase.) This is a limited edition so order soon! Thanks, Elevated Mixers, for sending me the product to try! It was a hit on July 4!

Have you seen Netflix’s kids and family summer s Have you seen Netflix’s kids and family summer slate? They’ve got you covered, whether you’re watching TV on a day that’s too hot to go outside or if you’re watching on the road during a long day of travel. There are things for the whole family to watch (like The Wild Robot), options for teenagers and young adults (like F1: The Academy), a long list for kids (like Pokemon Horizons and Barbie Mysteries, for starters) and your littles will be happy with new seasons of Paw Patrol, Peppa Pig and more. The adult in me is looking forward to Wednesday: Season 2 Part 1, and when I’m being Grammy, I’ll be watching some Cocomelon Lane and 7 Bears. Age is just a number — watch whatever you want!

Thanks to @NetflixFamily for this fun box of summer goodies! We’re going to have a blast making crafts, taking and printing pictures, and packing for a picnic with all this cool gear. Enjoy your summer! #NetflixPartner #NetflixFamily #SummerTV #netflix #travelfun #roadtrip #peppapig #wednesday
Congratulations on Rodrigo’s in Corona on their Congratulations on Rodrigo’s in Corona on their renovations! Same amazing menu with some new additions, including incredible cocktails and entrees. 
Thanks to Rodrigo’s, we were hosted on Saturday night for a full (and I mean FULL) meal, starting with cocktails and their guacamole, onto entrees, and another round of cocktails with my personal favorite: the churros with Mexican chocolate dipping sauce. We were seated in Monica’s section, and she took fantastic care of us, from recommendations to refills and restaurant info…and I got the best cup with my Paloma! Check it out in the video; I really want to add a few of these to my cocktail collection at home. The first three drinks you see are the Cadillac Margarita with a float, the Hibiscus Diablo (Blanco, lime, and ginger, topped with ginger beer) and a Jala Berry (Blanco, lime, Strawberry Re’al Puree, Cucumber Monin and bitters). I am up for anything spicy and that Jala Berry definitely has a kick…so good! 
Steve got the Steak Picado (big serving, beware, you will be blessed with leftovers for lunch the next day) and I got the Shrimp Tacos. 
Our second round of drinks include the Paloma in that beautiful cup (Patron Silver, grapefruit, lime, agave and Pamplemousse) and a Spicy Pina (Cazadores Blanco, Pineapple Re’al Puree and bitters). 
Then those CHURROS. It’s okay to take your entree home and eat these first. DO IT. Rodrigo’s is celebrating today at 4pm with a ribbon cutting with the Corona Chamber of Commerce. (And there will be free apps!) Head on in and check out their new interior, complete with three murals by SoCal artist @dayofthedeadskullz (Ross Boss), spacious seating, a gorgeous color palette and a wide open bar. Live music on the patio some weekend evenings, and Your Guilty Pleasure @ygpband was there on Sat night, so we hung out until they finished their set. A really fun evening. Thanks, @rodrigosmexicangrill Corona! #mexicanfood #churros #corona #cocktails #rodrigos #mexicanrestaurant #tacos #tequila #paloma #guacamole #californiafood #socalfoodie
