This Tumblr Is Perfect For Wine Moms Everywhere
It's no secret that two of my favorite things on this earth are alcohol and my mom. That's why I was ecstatic to come across the Moms Getting Drunk website this morning, because it combines both of those things into one pun-filled, vodka-soaked treasure trove of drink recipes that even Lucille Bluth would approve of. Sure, Mother's Day has technically passed, but does that mean you shouldn't round up your mom and start testing out Mamakazes and Mom Island Iced Teas like there's no tomorrow? Of course not. A wine mom has to branch out eventually, after all, and there's no better way to do it than in the company of her beloved offspring.According to the Daily Dot, creator Chris Limbrick first came up with his genius idea after a family dinner in which his mother and grandmother got a little tipsy. "We all made a toast and I remarked 'Haha, look, moms getting drunk!'" he told the Daily Dot. With his friend Justin Hanna, he came up with more than a dozen pun-based drink recipes to help moms everywhere get their Linda Belcher on. Recipes include the Ma Tai, Mamarita, Irish Car Mom, and, of course, the Bahama Mama, all of which are accompanied by a picture of an appropriately wasted-looking older woman.

"Moms are hard workers and they deserve a drink at they end of the day," Limbrick told the Daily Dot. "We shouldn't forget that, so let's make a toast to moms!"
If this sounds like your cup of tea (in the form of a hot toddy, of course), there are enough recipes on the website to last you and your mom at least a month, if you restrain yourselves to four or five drinks a week. Whether all of those are imbibed over the course of one night is up to you and your mom, of course, but don't let any potential raised eyebrows hold you back. Let the ultimate Wine Mom, Lucille Bluth, serve as an inspiration during your future alcoholic adventures.

You heard Mrs. Bluth. You do you, moms, even if that means trading drunken boob jokes with your sister during Christmas dinner after one too many glasses of wine. (Not that I'm speaking from experience or anything. My mother is a classy woman.)
To being your alcohol-fueled mother-daughter bonding time, check out the Moms Getting Drunk Tumblr. You won't regret it... until the hangover the next morning, probably, but then it's an excuse for mother-daughter brunch. It's a win all around!
