A close second, I might add. Just for the record, my most favorite is "fete," but enough of language. Here are the pictures which tell a thousand words! Seeing as how everyone at the fete event looked like a million bucks, let me add a few additional words of the text variety: This was a … Continue reading Gala is my 2nd favorite word for “party.”

Wine and Dine for the Arts weekend begins…
I'm never prouder to be even an infinitesimal part of the Capital Region dining scene than I am during this (4th) annual event. Such a terrific group of generous and hardworking - and really fun, folks that we are all lucky to have in our community.

Seriously, it probably single-handedly started the resurgence of Delaware Avenue when it opened a few years back. I think the appeal … Continue reading 12 Days of Christmas – Dining DelSo
