Ring of Fire

I present a Valentine's Day cocktail!  It is spicy, sweet and sour...just like a real love affair!

I saw June Carter Cash sing for Johnny Cash's birthday once.  She came out with her harp and said, "This is a song I wrote about what it is like to be in love with Johnny Cash"  To see this gentle little old lady sing this song, her own composition, to her dying husband...well it just broke my little heart.  I hope one day to be a little old lady who loves someone this much.

Here is the song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HnplCRQVLDM
