I'm doing a little pre-planting.  Last month's giveaway was a lot of fun!  I plan to do another one on Jodi Kantor's new book, The Obamas.  Stay tuned here to find your opportunity to win this book.  The best way to do that is to subscribe of course.


In The Obamas, Jodi Kantor takes us deep inside the White House as they try to grapple with their new roles, change the country, raise children, maintain friendships, and figure out what it means to be the first black President and First Lady. Filled with riveting detail and insight into their partnership, emotions and personalities, and written with a keen eye for the ironies of public life, The Obamas is an intimate portrait that will surprise even readers who thought they knew the President and First Lady.

Jodi Kantor began her journalism career by dropping out of Harvard Law School to join Slate.com in 1998. Four years later she became the Arts & Leisure editor of the New York Times, the youngest person in memory to edit a section of the newspaper. She has been covering the Obamas since 2007, writing about their faith, friends, marriage, roots, and family, among other topics. Jodi is a recipient of a Columbia Young Alumni Achievement Award, was named to Crain’s “Forty Under Forty” list of New Yorkers, and appears regularly on television. Though she is a Washington correspondent for the Times, she lives in Brooklyn with her family. Learn more at JodiKantor.net, her Facebook page, or on Twitter @JodiKantor.

Cocktails for 2012 | Trends

Style Alert:  In the northeast, we haven't seen a lick of snow as of yet.  However, we are already looking forward to licking (responsibly) boozy pops this Spring/Summer!

We gave you a little taste-test a while back.  See our post on this here.  We have also found another website with some inspiration:  Lush Pops.  Hmmm....would love to see these pops up here on the other side of the world from the Pacific Ocean.  I'll contact these folks for you and see what their plan is.  Considering that we actually do have snow in the forecast, I may have some more time on my hands to do some research.

The last word on 2012 cocktails for entertaining this year?  Rum, rum, rummity rum rum.  Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!  Start collecting those rum-runner recipes.  Send your favorites this way.  We will publish them with a link back to your website.

Enjoy responsibly.
