Whats Happening Around Town

My reason for creating this blog was so my friends and I can share the things around town we like to do. As moms, we have a wide variety of things we are looking to enjoy. We need activities for our children, things to enjoy as families and things we can do with our friends in those few blessed moments we can be women instead of moms. I have found many activities but none of them seem so extraordinary that they deserve posting. That has changed. While they are not family or children activities, activities that seem to be severely lacking in my blog, they are some of my favorite things to do. First is my weekly belly dancing class. I am a member of club boom, but you need not be to enjoy this class. For a seven dollar fee you may enjoy the facilities, including the classes. My friends have happily paid this to take this class. The teacher is a beautiful dancer whose love of dancing is infectious. She breaks down the routines in to manageable combinations and some of the steps are from previous weeks. This makes learning the steps surprisingly easy. Not that we in any way come close to approximating the skill and grace she has, we have, however, an enjoyable time, learn something new and exciting and we burn some calories and get stronger and more flexible.

The other activity I have been remiss in posting involves, you guessed it, the Ormond Wine Co. On Thursdays, they have a wine tasting. The cost is ten dollars. There are usually anywhere from six to ten wines with small appetizers to enjoy with your samples of wine. There is a lot of great information to be acquired. If you make a purchase that night, whether a bottle to take home, a glass to enjoy or food from the restaurant, you get a five dollar credit towards that purchase. So really you get all that for five dollars. I won't go on too much about this because if you want to know more about this restaurant, all you need to do is read more of my blog.
