Bite Notes

• Breeze through Madam Belle with a tart glass of sour cherry lemonade, made with sour cherries, lemon, simple syrup, and club soda. The recipe can be found in Classic Kentucky Meals by Rona Roberts.
• The spice and sweetness of Heaven Hill Distillery’s Larceny Bourbon pairs perfectly with Laurel Hightower’s Whispers in the Dark.
• You can easily make a pizza that's better than Domino's with the recipe for Quick Pizza Dough from the New York Times.
