Hello Friends, July is peak Ramona season here in New York and across much of the country. Your photos, emails and DMs bring such a smile to our team! From The Hamptons and NYC to Bethany Beach, Seattle, Calistoga and beyond, it is so wonderful to see RAMONA as a part of your summer and your lives. It's cliché but it's true! Be sure to catch our Summer Fridays series, a collaboration with wildly talented duo Jamila Janneh and Aaron Monu, in which they reimagine and bring to life recipes that friends and mixologists have created throughout the years. In case any of you are in need of beach reading recommendations, I recently finished Joan Didion’s collection of essays, Let Me Tell You What I Mean and her insights and writing are terrific. Our team read Think Like a Rocket Scientist by Ozan Varol - it came recommended by a dear friend and former Eleven Madison Park colleague, Laura Wagstaff and does a marvelous job communicating tools to think smarter and more critically about any idea. Get out there in the sunshine - I'll be out there too, sipping a can of RAMONA! With love, | |
