2014: Day 7 12DOD Day 7 is dedicated to Jeremy and Erin on the last day of the fall spin class. 8 weeks ago I was very nervous to attend my first spin class. You pushed my comfort zone, made me sweat… a lot, and the workouts and everything I have learned I know will … [Read more…]

2014: Day 14 of the 12 DOD The final day (I know – we’re not that gifted at counting). Tonight we celebrate the “BHAG” which stands for big hairy audacious goal (look it up – it’s a real term). It just seems appropriate to celebrate with a glass of champagne, or better, a bottle of … [Read more…]

“Le Petite Fleur”

December 20, 2014 by lchamaschuk Leave a Comment

2014: Day 10 In honor of our good friend Suzy. Le Petite Fleur has a strong, intense exterior (yes, it had to be pink!) with a heart of gold in the middle.

December 19, 2014 by lchamaschuk Leave a Comment

2014: Day 9 When looking back at 2014, there were a LOT of special and amazing moments.

2014: Day 6 For those of you who don’t know what a TeaBear is, see the photo below.  In short, she’s an incredible little dog who really caught my attention this year.

“New Soraya”

December 15, 2014 by lchamaschuk Leave a Comment

Three years ago, we introduced the “Soraya” to the 12 Days of Drinking. It was a fun, sweet, frivolous drink that made you smile. Three years later, the “New Soraya” is more mature, refined but every bit as sweet as it was three years ago. On this fifth day of the 12 Days of Drinking, … [Read more…]
