Thankful.

"With my dear mother in the audience, I would be in serious trouble if I didn't say that I give all thanks and glory to God.

I would also like to thank the Cleveland Arts Prize, all the judges and all of the other organizations involved in making this Verge Fellowship a reality.

To say that support for the arts is needed in Cleveland would be a gross understatement at any point in time, but especially in the times that are seemingly headed towards now.

And support comes in many forms -- monetary of course -- always support living artists as much as possible.

But also putting in a good word for someone when an opportunity arises, liking and sharing social media posts of new works or even attending an exhibition opening -- are also great ways to show support.

Being here tonight...is support.

I have to keep it short, but I've said all that to say that I'm ready to do the work and I hope you all are as well.

Thank you."

Happy Valemtime's Day to all of the lovers.

Last week during my pop up at @bsidecoventry, I had three special drinks I made for the occasion -- all with a cherry strawberry syrup that I concocted.

Also, along those lines. We intend to make The Manny Hour a monthly event on the first Wednesday of every month. See you there, if the spirit moves you.

But yes, I wanted to share one of the drinks from the event. This one combines bourbon, lemon juice and the cherry strawberry simple syrup.

𝗩𝗼𝘆𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗔𝘁𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗶𝘀*
2oz. @angelsenvy bourbon
1oz. lemon juice
1oz. cherry strawberry simple syrup

Add ingredients to cocktail shaker. Add ice. Shake and strain over fresh ice. Add a strawberry for garnish. Cheers.

*I understand that's largely looked at as a break-up song, but work with me. It's beautiful.
