papertimelady'Shakespeare, Not Stirred is a perfect combination of delicious Shakespeare, delectable food and delightful drinks. Gather your ingredients, invite your friends, and get ready for a meal of Shakespearean proportions. Falstaff would heartily approve!'

'Shakespeare famously wrote, "Better a tipsy witty fool than a foolish tipless wit"... or something like that. Regardless, if you want to laugh, maybe get a little tipsy, and actually learn a thing or two about The Bard's works, Shakespeare, Not Stirred will more than hit the spot.'
-- Christopher Monks, editor of McSweeney's Internet Tendency
'I love a good cocktail and have loved Shakespeare since high school and I'm always wanting to try new things (in the case of cocktails) and trying to remember the plot twists (in the case of Shakespeare). Reading Shakespeare, not Stirred gave me both - wonderful new cocktails to try and an amazing refresher English lit class by two women who happen to be English professors and incredibly funny. I'm now thinking of starting a regular book club/cocktail party to go through all the plays ... and drinks.'
-- Rosalind Wiseman, author of 'Queen Bees and Wannabes', the basis for the film 'Mean Girls'
'After guzzling every libation in Shakespeare, Not Stirred I became the most eloquent and witty drunk in my town, and so can you!'

-- Rachel Dratch
`A boozy, Bardy delight.'
