Cocktails, The Love Fool · January 8, 2021

The Side Eye

The Side Eye is another cocktail inspired by my debut novel THE LOVE FOOL.

This cocktail honors the plump black cat that frolicked among the ruins of Largo Argentina. I named it The Side Eye because of the surly look the cat gives to my main character Alex.

The drink’s structure is reminiscent of a Whiskey Sour, but with gin. I also added a dash of black pepper, a Luxardo cherry, and of course, some Cynar for that deep Italian twist.

Warning: Consuming raw or undercooked egg may increase your risk of foodborne illness.

Another travel gem: On that same 2018 Germany trip Another travel gem: On that same 2018 Germany trip I had a writing lunch at the world famous Schumann’s Bar in Munich - which celebrates 39 years today. Schumann’s is rated one of the top 50 bars in the world. I sat alone, writing and organizing story ideas, and observed real German life in action. — I miss travel.

I baked myself a pineapple cake. Why not? 🤷🏻 I baked myself a pineapple cake. Why not? 🤷🏻‍♂️ I experimented with random leftover ingredients I happen to have laying around: food coloring and sugars. This cake is topped with a pink champagne colored (I ran out of red coloring) vanilla buttercream frosting, with a scattering of champagne colored sugar (I was given a sample to try), and edible flowers (I had leftover from another project).

On this Holocaust Remembrance Day, I’m appreciat On this Holocaust Remembrance Day, I’m appreciating a trip to Germany in 2018 - specifically in Berlin and Nuremberg where I learned more about the anger, the wall, the horrors, the separations, the fight, the rescues, the allies, the victory, and the convictions.

Soon after this trip, I happened to read an amazing novel “Beneath A Scarlet Sky” by Mark Sullivan - which gives an insight into Milan during this period. Including the dreadful Binario 21 at the city’s Stazione Centrale, and the stunning incident in piazza Loreto.
