Atlantic Monthly Sends Give Me Seltzer a Shout Out
A recent article in the Atlantic Monthly called My Seltzer Conversion gives a lovely shout out to my project.
Sarah Elton's lovely post today makes me want to see Seltzer Works, the documentary she mentions about one of Brooklyn's last seltzer men, Kenny Gomberg—and wish we had a seltzer delivery service in Jamaica Plain. I can't find one, but I do find Give Me Seltzer, a blog I'll start reading, by one Barry Joseph, who's at work on a history of seltzer he intends to make definitive. He's got seemingly everything about current brands, and also equipment and its history.
The writer goes on to recount his conversion by his stepdaughter from tap to seltzer water when he received a Sodastream machine.
Notch another one up on the side of seltzer!

My upcoming speaking engagement in the Berkshires
My first talk on seltzer in more years than I can remember - my first talk since I restarted work on my book - will be held in the bucolic Berkshires this August.
For more information, download their PDF file.
I can't wait. I know this is going to be a real blast!
