THINGS
BOHO CHIC
Elisabeth Hasselbeck was
on the show not too long ago
and gifted me some great
pieces from the jewelry line
Hearne Dry Goods Co.
Designer Leigh Hillenmeyer
makes really cool boho
necklaces and earrings—I
have a fun feather pair
with hammered-metal details.
A portion of proceeds
supports a community health
clinic in Kenya, so win-win!

HELLA GOOD
We all know that
John is the drinks
expert in our
house. (Check out
his cocktail recipe
at left.) But the
brand-new Hella
Cocktail Bitters
& Soda line makes
it easy even for
nonpros like me.
They’re canned
spritzes that you
can drink on their
own or mix with
your favorite
booze. Cheers!

SPICY WATERMELON
MARGARITA
John says, “Summer’s not
over until you say it is, so
keep the season going with
this fresh, fruity cocktail.”
6 slices of jalapeño
chile
4 oz. St-Germain

4 oz. tequila blanco

GIMME SHELTER
Emilio Estevez took
12 years to make The
Public, which he
wrote and directed.
It’s the story of
a group of homeless
people who seek
shelter in a public
library during
a cold Cincinnati
winter and the
legal ramifications
of that. It was
mind-blowingly good
with such an amazing
cast: Christian
Slater, Gabrielle
Union, Alec Baldwin.
And Michael K.
Williams gives the
performance of his life.
FOOD FOR
THOUGHT
Dr. Will Li is the
most “digestible”
authority on food
versus wellness
that I’ve ever had
the pleasure
of meeting. His fans include U2,
Dr. Oz, and the pope—literally!
His book, Eat to Beat Disease:
The New Science of How Your
Body Can Heal Itself, is the
biggest thing I’ve read in a decade.
It shows you how food can fight
disease and transform your health.
It’s a game changer. drwilliamli.com
