We have talked about bringing Designing Obama to LA for sure, I will definitely post here if we make it happen! Thanks so much for your kind words.

I love gelato, but I also love granita and want to try to make some. Do you have any suggestions for websites for granita recipes? I found one basic recipe, but I can always experiment on my own. Wondering about doing a granita with courvoisier or maybe a fruit-based liqueur, but that might change the freezing point. Suggestions welcome. Also, is there any chance that there might be a Designing Obama presentation in Los Angeles anytime soon? I would like to attend if possible. I work at a college campus in L.A. and can assist with making connections for you if that would help out. Thanks! Lisa A. Hi Alissa,

The next day, I did make it into SF and heard reports from about 100 (!!) of the 800+ people who were there -- they said your history of campaign graphics was great: warm, funny, insightful. I was so disappointed I had missed it. So happy you have a recap here. Good, good stuff. Thanks for sharing. Hey Alissa,

I've seen that Pepsi stuff up all over town and it really dominates the landscape. They are using a variety of words, and it took me a few times before I got that it was for Pepsi. I definitely thought I was looking at political messaging. (Which didn't make sense since in LA, the only voting coming up is for the mayor's inevitable re-election.) Nice one Alissa!
