A Midwinter Night's Dream
Heroes for Hope
A Midwinter’s Night Dream, an annual charity fundraiser held by
Northport High School students that supports Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS or Lou Gehrig’s Disease) research
was held on January 6, 2011 at Oheka Castle on Long Island.
The event is unique in that it is run entirely by 43 high school students, ranging in age from 15 to 17 years old. Each year they honor several
Heroes for Hope that give support and inspiration to the students and the charity. Past honorees include
Nick Swisher, Billy Baldwin, Curt Schilling, and Edie Falco.
This year honorees included Curtis Martin from the
New York Jets and Chris Pendergast from the
Northport School District. Although he could not attend,
New York Yankee Curtis Granderson accepted his award with a special video message to the students about the importance of the work that they do.

Sweets for Your Sweet
|
A heart-shaped box of chocolates has always been your go-to Valentine’s Day gift, but let’s face it, that tradition has grown tired. Surprise your Valentine this year by switching up your sweets routine with a package of Effie’s Homemade oatcakes.
|
Oatcakes are a crisp, buttery tea biscuit with a slightly nutty flavor. perfect for your holiday sugar fix. But unlike most cloyingly sweet Valentine’s Day candy, oatcakes are only lightly sweetened, a gift for which your Valentine may thank you. Express your love in an original way this February with this simple, homemade treat.

Available at select specialty stores nationwide or visit
EffiesHomemade.com to purchase online.

Restaurant of the Week
Casa Lever
|
It's definitely not too early to decide where you'll take your honey for Valentine's Day. Casa Lever is a great choice!
|
Mario Danieli, executive chef at Casa Lever, has created an exclusive dessert for couples in collaboration with the pastry chefs of
Sant Ambroeus:
Cuore di Afrodite (Aphrodite’s Heart), a chocolate chiffon cake with a soft center of pistachio crème brulèe and sour cherry in an heart shaped chocolate mousse.
A complementary flute of champagne will be offered to every guest upon seating. |
|
Casa Lever patrons enjoy an extraordinary experience while dining surrounded by one of the world’s largest collection of
original Andy Warhol paintings, courtesy of the Lever House Art Collection. The restaurant was originally designed by
Marc Newson, who created an edgy yet elegant twenty-first-century look.
Lever House building, designed by Gordon Bunshaft of Skidmore, Owings and Merrill, is the
quintessential international-style skyscraper, and holds the distinction of being the first glass curtain-walled structure in New York City.
