In the bubbly spirit of social media, I attended a fantastic brunch this Sunday organized by fellow
TRACE alum and elixir vixen Miss Selena from
The Dizzy Fizz. Although the brunch focused on cocktail culture, and I was the only "lifestyle blogger" there, I have to admit everyone made me feel right at home! Held in the backroom of Brooklyn's
Clover Club, the vibe was energetic, cozy and fun. Not only were we served a delicious brunch, but there were representatives from both Sombra
Mezcal and
Partida Tequila on hand to answer questions and introduce us to the wide world of
agave. What a lovely way to spend a Sunday afternoon! The revival of old school cocktails, and the popularity of cocktail culture means I have a lot to learn. But thanks to
The Dizzy Fizz and her blogger buddies, I'm confident that I have a great network of teachers - and that's something I can toast to!

Another genius idea from the Japanese: Cat Cafés. Since 2008 a handful of these establishments have popped up in Tokyo, welcoming locals and tourists alike. Let's face it, cats get a bad rap because they have the reputation of being indifferent, antisocial or downright mean. These cat chill zones are a great way to combat those stereotypes. Who wouldn't want to take a quick snuggle with one of these little guys?
