Welcome to the February issue of Stroll Historic Brookhaven. This issue is dedicated to things we love – from people and pets to food and jewelry.

 

Our spotlight family loves living in Historic Brookhaven. Cathy and Adam Shaifer and their three boys have lived here for over 16 years – Adam even longer as his parents moved to Brookhaven Drive in 1990 when he was in high school. The Shaifers love their French bulldogs, playing golf, traveling to the lake house, and skiing. Read our feature to learn more about how they met, the family business, and their historic home.

 

Precious Pet Bella is a wiggling Australian shepherd. She loves her human family the Whatleys, chasing squirrels, and fishing. This month, we interviewed Ansley Eden who loves jewelry and tells us about her new business The Welding Bar.

 

Nancy Jiang brings us a recipe for Chocolate Macadamia Nut cookies that are perfect for your Valentine. If you like Girl Scout cookies, read about Susan Lichtman and her two girls Hollis and Hensley. Susan is the cookie manager for the girls’ troop.

 

Mother-daughter love is a strong bond but can also grow into a great working relationship, such as that between resident Anna Hough and her mother Jennifer. Anna is using her corporate marketing skills to help her mom Jennifer market her first book, Simple Hospitality.

 

In this issue, you’ll also find upcoming events, a piece about the benefits of a 20-minute workout, and more.

 

Tell me what you love – send me an email at lgwargo@aol.com. I’d like to learn more about you and the things you enjoy. What do I love? God, family, friends, my dog Edgar, working out, writing, traveling, Historic Brookhaven, our readers, and so much more.

 
Happy reading!
Best,
Lisa Wargo
