Books not to revisit

Siddharta, by Hermann Hesse.

Absolutely mind-blowing when I was 15.

Don’t try to read it again if you have any self-consciousness about how ridiculous you were at 15.

“Some folks weren’t meant to fit into boxes—they were meant to break out of them.” 🙊🙊 . . With their powers combined, words by @amybessyes and pics by @tuanlee , I manage to come off lookin pretty competent. 🤯😎. . . . Check out #spiritedmagazine July/August online or IN PRINT(!) for profile. Pretty much makes 2 years of no sleep totes worth it. #youlikemeyoureallylikeme 😳

WHAT SHE SAID! It was an honor to talk to @amybessyes (again!) for this fantastic and crucial piece for SFD. Check her ouuut. #Repost @amybessyes with @get_repost ・・・ 🗣"Listen to women, listen to minorities, listen to the stories of all people,” advises [Victoria] James. ... I hope the biggest change we see industry-wide is [that] those in power listen more and act as protectors.'" The thoughts in this #essay have been percolating in my mind for years. After gathering key insight from colleagues like @victoria___james @greatbooisup @thecollectress @opedible and @vindrop, I'm pleased to release it into the world. I hope it spurs more open conversation (whether in agreement or not) on difficult topics so that all of us can keep working toward greater #equity. Mountains of gratitude to the team at @sevenfiftydaily for their thoughtful editing. Thanks also to @writingxwriters for giving me the time and space to first put this on paper, and to all who've offered perspective and moral support. You know who you are. 🙏

Pssht ... tell you a secret...this one’s my fav. . . . #Repost @drinkvervet with @get_repost ・・・ Allow us to introduce Pale Mary. . . We see you, savory drinkers. You’re drawing side eye from your bartender because you want a bloody at 8:00 pm on a Tuesday. You’re opting for that cheese plate while everyone else dives into the chocolate cake. We understand. . . What do you get when you take tomatoes, chop them up and strain out all the solids? Tomato water. Just the essence, with none of the pulp. Add a squeeze of lemon, our own spicy celery bitters, and Wilder Gin (sage, clementine, bay leaf, anyone?), and voilà. All the savory with none of the soup. A completely crushable mary. Available now @barkeepersilverlake and @klwineshollywood 😎 . . #cannedcocktails #cannedcocktail #drinkvervet #craftcocktails #craftcocktailsla #bloodymary #michelada #clarifiedbloodymary #sparklingcocktails #sparklingcraftcocktails #gin #bitters #tomato #tomatowater #habanero #daydrinking #brunch

Growing and growing... #Repost @drinkvervet with @get_repost ・・・ Hey fellow primates! Vervet has arrived @thefieldsla just in time for @lafc vs Houston. We are ecstatic to launch here and can’t wait to celebrate #blackandgold nation. Come on down and #pshht some cans with us 🤸‍♀️ . . #cannedcocktails #cannedcocktail #drinkvervet #craftcocktails #craftcocktailsla #spritz #americano #spritzme #vermouth #bitters #palemary #tikitea #angelicano #lafc

#Repost @drinkvervet with @get_repost ・・・ Tiki was born in LA, a fantasy ushered to greatness by Filipino barkeeps shaking and swizzling behind the scenes. LA is defined by its Asian and Latinx cultures, and we wanted to bring some of those flavors together in this tasty libation. . . Say hey to the Tiki Tea! Cold brewed oolong tea, prickly pear vodka, real lime juice, and an infusion of ginger, clove, allspice and vanilla that evokes holidays in the islands. What islands? Well, where do you want to go? It’s all about the fantasy, remember… . . Perfect for margarita drinkers, mojito lovers, iced tea addicts, and anyone looking to relax with something light and delightful. This here is the crowd pleaser. Fresh cans for your weekend @barkeepersilverlake . . #cannedcocktails #cannedcocktail #drinkvervet #craftcocktails #craftcocktailsla #tiki #tikitea #polynesian #falernum #losangeles

Aaaaah! So... #milestones. Y’all we are available at the coolest m-effing liquor store in the city (if not the world). Get yer cans at @barkeepersilverlake #idkcanyou . . #Repost @barkeepersilverlake with @get_repost ・・・ Summertime, and the living is easy...and your cocktails can be, too! We're super excited to be the first retailer in town to stock these fun and delicious sparkling cocktails from Vervet. This is a great local endeavor and of course we're always happy to support the home team. But these little canned sparkling beverages are really quite tasty! Choose from Angelicano, a pretty Americano riff; Pale Mary, a kind of clarified sparkling Bloody Mary; and Tiki Tea, which you will not be surprised to hear is a brightly flavored tropical punch. 12 ounce cans $5.50 each. Not chilled as we have no refrigeration, but otherwise ready to drink -- just pour over ice in a tall glass! All are lightly sparkling and low ABV (8%), so you can enjoy all day. . . . #barkeepersilverlake #vervet #drinkvervet #cocktail #cocktails #cannedcocktail #cannedcocktails
