I was in Buffalo two evenings last week for an actual party and then a book talk that was better than most parties to celebrate Amy Stewart’s “The Drunken Botanist.” The book is just great, and Amy is a wonderful speaker, and did I mention there were cocktails? Yeah, good ones. If you are interested in a little background on Amy you can read about her poison garden here and her cocktail garden here. Here’s the recipe that started it all. My D&C column about the book is here.
