Keep up with the Mad Men

By DEIRDRE FULTON | December 9, 2009

To ward off the sickness of the season, try a Hot Toddy at any number of local establishments. The DOWNTOWN LOUNGE (606 Congress St.) and LOCAL 188 (685 Congress St.)., are both known for their versions of this restorative concoction of whiskey, hot water, lemon juice, and honey. Sip one as soon as you feel the sniffles coming on, and you'll be running with the big boys again in no time. Don Draper would be proud.

On the surface, they have little in common: An unassuming entrepreneur in her late 50s, an accomplished 38-year-old photojournalist, and a trio of energetic teenagers. But these women do exhibit several shared traits. They are plucky and passionate, clever and unpretentious. They are Mainers. And all five will be honored next Thursday, May 23, at the Maine Women's Fund's annual Leadership Luncheon, which honors those who are making life better for women and girls in this state and beyond.
