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 8 Thank you. It shouldn’t take a tragedy like the one in Abbotsford on November 6 to thank those that selflessly place themselves in harm’s way for our safety. Thankfully, losing first responders is a relatively rare occurrence in Canada, which is why it was a sobering moment. We want to thank our … [Read more…]
2017: Day 5 It’s all your fault Robbie!! Well ok not really, but you had a big part to play in this one. Joel mentioned that this is the year of Goodbyes.

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.
