See the party we threw for new parents-to-be Eric and Alicia in the Entertainment section.
Hooray, Punxsutawney Phil predicted an early spring! On this very dreary day, his handlers announced he did not see his shadow when he popped out of his little hill at Gobblers Knob (no joke, that’s really what it’s called) in Pennsylvania. Although winter weather can sometimes be
dreadful, according to Phil, spring will be here before you know it and along with warm weather, comes cookouts, hiking, camping, and a multitude of outdoor activities. While prepping for your adventure filled spring, don’t forget the Boy Scouts motto, “Always Be Prepared” and of course your preparation isn’t complete without a little vodka. Check out Kru82 Vodka, available later this month. The crisp taste isn’t the only great thing about this new product, the stainless steel container is reusable and equipped with it’s very own carabiner. Perfect for those fun filled spring days.
