Thank you so much to the Manitowoc County Historical Society for hosting my Zoom talk tonight about Wisconsin ties to the Titanic! I so badly wanted to be there in person, but just so happy we could all connect.

What a great group! We talked about Manitowoc-born First Class passenger Emil Brandeis; the Minahans of Fond du Lac; and – of course – we talked about Third Class passenger Daniel (Popcorn Dan) Coxon of Merrill!

For the meeting, I made the Clover Club cocktail, which is one of my very favorite pre-Prohibition cocktails! We shared the recipe with participants in advance of the meeting.

Thank you so much Jane Olson for the perfect garnish- your wonderful, beautiful  and oh-so fragrant scented geraniums!
