The May Issue of Portico

One of my favorite “side jobs” (I guess all of my jobs are “side jobs…”) is my job as a freelance writer for Portico Magazine. Not only is this magazine one of the prettiest local publications I’ve ever seen, but the content is so timely and interesting, no matter what the topic of the issue is!

This most recent issue is the literary issue, so my assignment was to write about The Library, a lounge at Fairview Inn! This is, hands down, my favorite assignment to date. I had such a great time getting to interview the fine folks at The Fairview and getting to enjoy a meal of tapas and cocktails with my hubby as I “researched” for the assignment!

A peek at our meal from The Library! Great food and great cocktails!

I hope you’ll pick up a copy so you can read about all the cool things I learned surrounding The Library! The story even includes a couple of killer cocktail recipes! This place is one of the coolest places in Jackson, in my opinion!! 🙂

While on the topic of the new Portico, I read the book review of Z: A Novel of Zelda Fitzgerald. It’s a book written from Zelda’s p.o.v., telling her side of her love story with one of my favorite authors, F. Scott Fitzgerald. Since I’m in love with The Jazz Age, I’m thinking of going to pick this book up as soon as I finish my current read!
