Saturday, February 6th from 6:00-8:00 – Martinis & Mayhem – $75/person
Whether you are a gin man (or woman) or a vodka fanatic, you will find no better place to quench that special thirst than at this grand celebration of the martini. Follow Robert Benchley’s advice: “Why don’t you get out of that wet coat and into a dry martini?” (Or some other drink)
Saturday, March 20th at 11:30 – Maple Harvest – $50/adult & $25/child
Crowd around the grill for a country lunch, while learning all about “sugaring” from your enterprising hosts who every year tap their own trees. You might even snag a taste of North Salem syrup.
Sunday, March 14th at 4:00 – Art North Salem – $150/person
Enjoy dinner at Roseclyff, the spectacular home created by this multi-talented artist and designer. The decor is accented by the vibrant colors of her paintings and her sculpture, and by the whimsical one-of-a-kind furniture. Show-cased in the March/April 2009 Bedford Magazine.
Sunday, February 28th at 11:30 – Edible Ecriture – $100/person
As philosopher Francis Bacon observed: “Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed.” In an unusual pairing of literature and food, your hosts will offer you a selection of fine foods written about in their favorite books.
