Raves and Reviews

"Author Rose Maura Lorre has the perfect solution to the many conundrums of parenthood--and adult life in general. She just wrote a luscious book ... this chick knows what she's talking about. So make yourself and others happy. Buy the book for yourself and give one to a friend." --Parents.com

"Maura Lorre, along with co-author Mavis Lamb, has compiled a list of more than 150 drink recipes, each one paired with a particular moment of 'mommy triumph.' The Big Book of Martinis for Moms may be half in jest, but reaching for mother's little helper is no joke." --St. Louis Magazine

"We love books that treat moms like grown-ups. Yes, we like an occasional cocktail from time and time. And when we get a really great martini we've been known to go back for another. The Big Book of Martinis for Moms is an exceptional reference book of drink recipes when you want your very own happy hour. And, provides a wonderful reason to have the girlfriends over." --Mom Bloggers Club

"Authors Rose Maura Lorre and Mavis Lamb have painstakingly developed and curated recipes for every demonstrable occasion along the child-rearing process. There are plenty of creative ideas for drinks, regardless of target audience. It could certainly find a place on your home bookshelf or as an excellent gift for baby showers, Mother's Day, or any other occasion to celebrate women who sacrifice so much for their children (and could use a stiff drink after)." --Drinkhacker.com

"This book is sure to make you chuckle! The recipes are delicious, the pictures beautiful and eye-catching, and the writing is very colorful and amusing.

Not only is it a very unique book, it's a gift that keeps on giving." --Newly Crunchy Mama of 3
