I am new to the wonders of absinthe, being introduced to it only this past July by my editor at the NECON conference in RI. How cool that there are not only spoons but an ice water dispenser! Lori kept telling us that there was an art to absinthe drinking and obviously the right tools are essential as well.
Hi Jan
Thanks for writing. If you are curious about absinthe, please check out this link to my very first post on this blog:

What a great drawing. I saw the bit on Absinthe last year or the year before on Sunday Morning. Fascinating. Thanks for the chance!
Leaving my entry for you Michelle. I'm so glad to have met you at conference. I'm going now to find out what the heck absinthe is. I thought it was poison. So there you go :)
Thanks for this fun opportunity! I am looking forward to the book & am happy to have my name in the pot! --Brenda W.
I'm a historical mystery buff and love your books!! Please enter my name in the drawing. Thanks.

Please count me in. It says to contact you. Rather than get emails from each one of us, is a comment okay? LOL I know the inbox can be overwhelming sometimes. I have never drank absinthe, but I do love alcohol. I am going to look it up in my bartender book. :)
Love the idea!

I have never tried absinthe, but I love that lacy little spoon. I like it even more when a lovely mystery has some special item that identifies with it. I will have to make sure and read this!
Enter me! I bought five of your books so if I win I'll pass my new copy along to a friend! Now I just need to decide which book to read first.
Dear Kathie
That is so sweet of you to say! I'm flattered!
I am doing research for my college thesis, thanks for your great points, now I am acting on a sudden impulse.

So interesting that drinking absinthe requires its own special spoon--and such a pretty one at that. A great tie-in to your books!
Interesting, that it needs its own spoon!
Hi Rebecca--The slotted absinthe spoon is used to hold lumps of sugar over the glass of absinthe. Water is then trickled over the spoon and into the glass, slowly dissolving the sugar.
