This is my tragedy.

During COVID, my company split us into two shifts so the entire company couldn’t be taken out by an outbreak. I won the lottery and got the 12-8p shift. I slept sooooo well. They said we’d go back to normal hours when the vaccine hit. I almost wept when it rolled out.

💖 That's so amazing to hear!! I tell people all the time that comics is such an ideal medium for this, for instructional content in general. But it's absolutely incredible to see that actually working in real life!

It’s good. I got my copy. It’s so good that my boss is buying copies to keep at the bar as a training tool. It is legitimately the most user friendly cocktail book I have ever seen, while also being accurate and well researched.

It's My Book Birthday! Let's Make Cocktails! is finally out today!

I had a lot of big feelings about this book coming out even before... (waves hands, gestures at everything)

But I worked very hard on this book for almost two years, and I am so excited (and terrified) to share it with you!
