		<description><![CDATA[Catching up on some 2010 reading that I had heretofore missed&#8211;will my manservant ever catalog the periodicals correctly?&#8211;I find that Wayne Curtis shares my aversion to supersized cocktails. Small cocktails were favored for a simple reason: they stay chilled from beginning to end. Few things are as unappealing as a Martini that’s warm when you [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the Atlantic Monthly, Wayne Curtis explores the bitter truth of Fernet Branca&#8211;which, contrary to popular misconception, is not the older brother of Glenn. Other than that, itâ€™s hard to describe what Fernet Branca tastes like; it mostly tastes like Fernet Branca.
