We had a blast serving up some of the 12 Cocktails of Christmas and selling out of my first batch of books.   I couldn't have done it without the help and support of my fabulous team. Thank you to Emily Clack, Diana Blass, Caitlin Smith, Paula Tulis, Simone Meadow and Kristen Finn.

We started our demo with the Cranberry Sangria from the Capital Cooking Cookbook.  This recipe is perfect for Thanksgiving and throughout the Holiday Season.
