Summer is here and the Washington region sparkles in the sunshine. In this issue of John Eric Home, we capitalize on this season in the nation’s capital. Open our pages to find different takes on sangria in Mixology and bring the sea to your kitchen with a great recipe for lobster rolls. Details provides you with different choices for the ultimate summer, back yard accessory – grill sets. Journey with us through France in Destinations and check out prominent DC artists and interior designers. In our Home Trends feature, learn more about Mid-Century Modern design and in our Design News feature learn the buzz around Washington. In Stylist we concentrate on shoes – to keep you stylish all season long – and in Black Book, we bounce around the world finding the most exotic ice creams.
