A Toast to Whatever's Next

This past Monday, I put a bottle of champagne in the refrigerator in anticipation of celebrating my final day at my art studio. I was moving out. Moving on.

On Thursday evening, after getting home from storage, I pulled out my favorite vintage champagne coupe, dropped an aromatic strawberry flavored 16 calorie sugar cube in the bottom of my perfect stemware, and poured a glass of champagne.

The combination of the champagne & the sugar cube made a fun fizzle, and after watching it for a bit I took a sip of a delightful strawberry champagne cocktail. Not too sweet either. It was just right.

I made a toast to Whatever’s Next and savored my drink.

Last night, I used a raspberry sugar cube but I ran out of champagne after 1 glass.
