It's Memorial Day 2011. A scorcher in New York City, around 92 in the shade. A lazy day if there ever was one, which was devoted to a massive pile of newspapers and stacks of new books. On the menu is Rock Shrimp with garlic, parsley, and tomatoes - sauteed in olive oil, and served with a toasted french baguette, drizzled with olive oil.Read a great article about the Negroni being a "foolproof cocktail" in the Weekend Wall Street Journal. The key is the easy 1-1-1 ratio: equal parts gin, sweet vermouth, and Campari. Even the lamest of bartenders in the lowliest of dives can get that right. Not only is the Negroni potent, it's also very refreshing, and a cool summer cocktail.
