2017: Day 9 Remember that time you were invited to a great party but you were the only one that showed up? Yeah, neither do I. But, sadly, Joanne F is quite familiar with it! Here’s how it went down. It started out as a great idea a couple years ago. She was going to be … [Read more…]
2017: Day 4 This little number starts out with some serious heat and sass (a whole lotta shut-up) but mellows out until it finishes on a seriously sweet note. And the drink does the same. Badda-bing badda-boom. It’s fair to say that this year’s crop of drinks will continue to focus on moving on to … [Read more…]
2016: Day 2 In 2016, we got to know Stelvis. And the story goes a little something like this. About 6 years ago I was having a ‘life goals lunch’ with a long-time friend and colleague, Stacey.

2015: Day 14 “One Team One Dream” in honour of my tribe at Annex Consulting Group.

2015: Day 1 For those of you new to our group of Facebook friends, every year Linda and I celebrate the holiday season with a tradition we call the “12 Days of Drinking” or 12 DOD.

The Fonz was always there for his friends and no matter how bad his day was, you’d never know it by … [Read more…]
Three years ago, we introduced the “Soraya” to the 12 Days of Drinking. It was a fun, sweet, frivolous drink that made you smile.

2014: Day 2 The “Lindsey“, much like its namesake, has a perfect balance of sweet and spicy. A kicked up Caesar, it is made with Clamato, jalapeno infused ice wine (The Flame), vodka and a few spices, this little red head can pack quite the punch if you don’t respect it.
