This week, we'll get to take in the remainder of the World Cup (Netherlands v. Uruguay this afternoon), watch the NBA free agent market come together, the summer baseball season rolls along, and British Open tune-ups begin. It has been, and continues to be, an amazing sports summer.
Similarly amazing? What we're drinking this week. But first!...
Soundtrack of the Week: Robyn "Body Talk Pt. 1"
Book of the Week: Stieg Larsson's "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo
Larsson's story is an interesting one. He was a magazine editor, who somehow found the time to compose this novel without much fanfare. He didn't seek his novels' publication until shortly before his untimely passing. He passed away at a rather young age from a heart attack, with 3 completed, but unpublished novels - The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo being the first. If you're in need of a book this summer, this is a wonderful book with which to consume your time.
What We're Drinking This Week
Tomorrow (Wednesday): Matador - Tequila and pineapple juice. Delicious.
Friday: Aviation - Gin, maraschino cherry liqueur and lemon juice. One of my favorite orders when I happen upon a place that serves them.
Looking forward to this week's drinks (and not this week's heat). Stay cool out there - we'll see you tomorrow!
