Blind Wine Tasting Party and A Long Run...

 But not as long as it should have been.  :)  This was a really busy weekend for me.  Friday night we had a blind wine tasting party to raise some dollars for LLS.  It was held at Kimberly's where we were having a chocolate and wine smorgasbord.  With Kimberly, Deborah, Christina, and myself working we got everything set up and ready to go.  I was surprised with early birthday balloons and an adorable market tote and wine stopper.  David brought a cake for the August babies (Mike and myself), a sinful chocolate creation from Chocolate Nirvana.  And when all the guests were there we got to work on trying all the wines.    Kimberly was our amazing wine goddess and was pouring like crazy.  We tasted from A-T, which is 20 bottles for those of you keeping count.  I had to laugh that when the tallies were in I had brought both the best (Pomula Wine Spritz) and the worst wine (a late harvest Chardonnay).  After taking myself out of the competition since I had made the prizes, we had some more winners :)  When all was said and done I think everyone had a great time and we raised just under $300 for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society!
Saturday was a very funny day with the work schedule and so the long run was moved to Sunday morning.  Which was still a hectic so I only got in seven, I wanted to get in nine.  I have to make sure I get that in next weekend since the half is getting very close.
