LondonHouse Chicago, Curio Collection by Hilton

<h2>A sustainable cocktail collab that's good for the planet.</h2>
We're raising a glass to Mother Earth this April with the return of one of our favorite collaborations! LondonHouse Chicago is once again teaming up with <a href="https://www.instagram.com/bcycledbottles/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">B-Cycled Bottles</a>, a local small business focused on creative upcycling, for an Earth Day celebration that's equal parts luxurious and sustainable.
<h2>Upcycled Glassware</h2>
In honor of Earth Day (April 22) and Cinco de Mayo (May 5), we're bringing back our limited-time cocktail experience — this year with two offerings, each served in one-of-a-kind upcycled glassware handcrafted by B-Cycled Bottles right here in Chicago. Your cocktail comes in a repurposed vessel transformed into a beautiful drinking glass, and yes — you get to take it home.
Sip sustainably and keep the glass. It's the perfect eco-conscious souvenir.<h2>The Story Behind B-Cycled Bottles</h2>
This collab wouldn't be possible without Brandon Eckenrode, the founder of B-Cycled Bottles. What started as a DIY party favor idea in 2015 has since grown into a globally loved brand giving empty bottles a second life. Brandon partners with bars and restaurants to collect specific glass bottles — transforming them into stylish, durable glassware now found in homes across 13 countries.
Each B-Cycled glass is a little work of art, designed to celebrate sustainability without sacrificing style.

<h2>Celebrate Earth Day with Purpose</h2>
Whether you're in town for Earth Day, planning a spring rooftop outing, or just looking for an excuse to try something new, these cocktails are the perfect way to toast the planet. Join us at LondonHouse Chicago between April 22 and May 5 (or while supplies last!) for this limited-time offering.
Because when sustainability looks and tastes this good, why not make it part of the celebration?

More than fifteen years after Parks and Recreation premiered, it has become a streaming and pop culture staple. It’s beloved for its jokes, characters, and expressions—the show even created a now widely observed holiday, Galentine’s Day. How did it all happen and how did the show transform from a ratings disappointment into a cult classic? Pop culture historian Jennifer Keishin Armstrong reveals all this and more in the definitive history of the show, which is as full of humor, optimism, and heart as Parks and Recreation itself.
Through new and exclusive interviews, as well as deep insight and smart and entertaining pop culture analysis, Armstrong tells the story of how Parks and Recreation came to be: how it grew from The Office’s success and Obama-inspired optimism, how producers assembled one of TV’s most lovable casts but barely survived a mediocre first season, how the show found its voice by getting more political and more romantic, and how it became a cultural force despite middling ratings during its network run, going on to become a television savior of the Trump era and a modern classic.
For fans of the show, readers who enjoy behind-the-scenes stories, and everyone who loves a nostalgic deep-dive, Parks and Rec is an exploration of its legacy as an enduringly lovable modern comedy classic full of optimism and heart. Lovingly told and deeply researched, Parks and Rec is the ultimate history of the show that taught us what’s important in life: friends, waffles, and work.
Praise for&nbsp;Parks and Rec:
“A magnificent job of chronicling the unlikely beginnings of the show—the way that Greg Daniels and Mike Schur conceived of the premise and the world, and then the rag-tag way they put the cast together…You’ll be treated within to all manner of winning anecdotes about the adorable and talented team of champions that made up our cast.” —Nick Offerman, excerpted from the foreword to Parks and Rec
“Making Parks and Rec was fun, pure fun, achieved through joyous collaboration with an incredible collection of writers and actors and creative people. I miss it every day, and Jennifer Keishin Armstrong’s book is as close as I (or anyone) can get to actually being there, working and laughing and making something we all loved so much.” —Michael Schur, co-creator of Parks and Recreation
“Sweet as a plate of JJ’s waffles, Parks and Rec is a thoughtful celebration of the underdog sitcom that, for seven seasons, put an optimistic lens on liberal democracy and small-town life. Full of behind-the-scenes stories from the show’s writers, cast and crew, Parks traces the NBC sitcom’s transformation from mid-season misfire to witty, romantic television classic. A perfect gift for members of the Leslie Knope-o-verse—or anyone searching for a little sunlight in a dark time.” —Emily Nussbaum, staff writer at The New Yorker and author of Cue the Sun!
New York Times bestselling author JENNIFER KEISHIN ARMSTRONG has written nine books, including Seinfeldia, Mary and Lou and Rhoda and Ted, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=05toyDW7vhk" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Sex and the City and Us</a>, and <a href="https://americanwritersmuseum.org/podcast/episode-42-jennifer-keishin-armstrong/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">When Women Invented Television</a>.
