This Thursday we’re making our own bouquets, but we’re gonna switch things up this time. Rather than bringing flowers yourself, we’ll provide a variety to share. If you want to participate it’s just $20 to make a bouquet and includes a delicious drink! PLEASE RSVP IN COMMENTS.

Do The Dame Thing is an evening for women to come together to create, connect, collaborate, inspire and de-stress. Come as you are, bring a friend if you’d like. No experience required, no pressure for perfection, just freedom to express yourself through simple floral design.

I can’t wait to see you!

Beetle Bodega will host as she facilitates a Women’s circle in partnership with Thursday January 16th from 5-8pm. We’ll have mocktails and mingle until doors close at 6 for the circle.

We invite all ladies craving connection and community to join us, and to bring a friend, if that feels good to you. I find my deepest healing when I’m able to be vulnerable and connect with other women. Each time I’m reminded that we are all experiencing the same things through different situations. It leaves me feeling seen and uplifted, and I hope it will do the same for you.

This circle is donation based. Come as you are. Bring a friend if you’d like.

Sips and snacks available for purchase.

This Friday, DECEMBER 6th from 5-8pm I’ll be sampling and serving 3 of Curious Elixir’s booze-free craft cocktails.

Curious Elixirs are carefully created with the finest ingredients, infused with adaptogens and no refined sugar. These functional, booze-free beverages use the magic properties of plants to lift you up, bring balance, and help you unwind.

No. 5- Smoked Chocolate Cherry Old Fashioned with Cacao, Elderberry, Smoked Cherry, Chikory and Shatavari. It may boost your mood, your immunity, and even have aphrodisiac effects.

No. 6- Coconut Pineapple Oatmilk Painkiller with Lemon Balm and Nutmeg to relieve stress and boost your mood and Aloe for a beauty boost. Reminds me of Christmas in Hawaii.

No. 9- Rosy Rosé with Fizzy Lime, Chardonnay grape, Echinacea, Kanna, and Poppy to open your heart and lift your mood. May ease stress and boost immunity as well.

I drank a No. 9 at Bunko last night and was every bit as satisfied as if I had a glass of my favorite wine. I woke up feeling refreshed and ready for a beautiful day.

We’ll see you Friday!

Hey ladies- I missed you all last Thursday, and I’m ready Do The Dame Thing again. It’s more important than ever to come together, connect, and love on each other.

I decided to do a game night, because they bring people together, create joy, and help our minds to focus. I’m not super competitive, but I do love to win games that don’t involve skill 😂 I’ve been thinking of making game night a monthy thing and which game would be the most fun and inclusive. I thought about a Bunko night (I still am), but Bingo kept coming up. Because of the synchronicities, I decided that was the game to start with. Then last night I walked into TJ Maxx (🙌🏼) and there was the cutest Bingo cage, done deal!!

Join us this Thursday 11/7 from 5-8ish. We’ll have Mocktails and mingle and the game will start at 6. You’re absolutely welcome to come hang out, even if you don’t feel like playing.

Bring a friend, or meet some new ones.

Sips and snacks available for purchase.
