one angle on my studio. more to come.

When my husband Steve and I rented an apartment in Florence a few summers ago, we got in the habit of having this exquisite cocktail each night our local outdoor café. In my humble view, it is the season’s most sophisticated drink. Cold, sweet, bitter, a touch of sour—all add up to something beyond refreshing.

The Americano

Ice
One shot of Campari
One shot of sweet vermouth
Soda water
Slice of orange

Place lots of ice in a large glass. Add Campari and vermouth, fill the remainder of the glass with club soda. Stir. Add orange slice. I like to serve it with a straw.

Does no one else in the HC work at an office? I am totally unplugged at home, so this is pretty much my only workspace.

I'm very grateful to have sunlight in my pod. Accordingly, I am known as the crazy plant lady.
