We’re continuing the summer series of sharing some of the DIY summer cocktails we enjoy at home. Yes, it’s still summer! This round, we have a wonderful cocktail using rum, yum, and fresh basil from our garden: a grapefruit basil mojito. It’s the perfect summer drink! Pretty sure we say that about all of our cocktails, but we can’t pick a favorite. There is something about this one though, that makes you feel like you’re being a little healthy: grapefruit, basil from the garden… I mean, it works, right?!

Today is Holocaust Remembrance Day. This memorial in Miami was developed by a small group of Holocaust survivors in 1984, who wanted a place to memorialize those who did not survive. The sculpture, created by Kenneth Treister, is in memory of the six million Jews who perished at the hands of the Nazis.

"NEVER SHALL WE FORGET. The totality of the Holocaust cannot be created in stone and bronze ...but I had to try. The rich diversity of the European culture, now lost, cannot be expressed ... but I had to try. The murder of one and one half million children whose joys turned to sorrow suddenly on September 1, 1939, when World War 11 broke out, cannot be sculpted... But I had to try. Six million moments of death cannot be understood.... But we must all try." - Kenneth Treister
