Greetings Neighbors,
Milestone birthdays really make you pause and think back over your years. I have been blessed and I am grateful for every day of my life journey and am looking forward to the gift of future birthdays. Fun fact, I was born on a Friday and this is the first year since my birth year, 1971, that the calendars are exactly the same. Of course, having a birthday in a pandemic doesn't allow for a celebration with my family and friends as I would have liked. However, there is one thing for certain, I will still have cake!
I am honored that our wonderful District 8 Furlough Cheesecake Sisters have created a signature flavor, "Orange Crush" cheesecake that will be available starting Friday, February 5th, in Celebration of my Birthday. This is so meaningful because #Orange Crush was a part of our campaign branding and it was so popular that it carried over to our District 8 team. Celebrate with me, by going to get your delicious "Orange Crush" cheesecake at The Furlough Cheesecake - District 8/National Harbor location, 170 American Way, Oxon Hill MD 20745. Individual cheesecakes are available.
