You'd think that after attending the last three of these events I'd know precisely what to expect - attractive men and women clad in various shades of pink having a good time for a good cause. I always see someone I haven't seen in years, the beverages usually lean more to vodka than cava and … Continue reading Pink Party 2012

Falvo’s returns the love
DerryX brought my attention to this recent addition to the Falvo's website. I had been thrilled to see a Vinoteca piece I wrote posted on their deli cabinet last month when I picked up my brisket, but this goes even beyond! Thanks, Falvo's, for the links and most especially for being such a great butcher … Continue reading Falvo’s returns the love

And the short ribs? They were on sale … Continue reading Meeting and Meat

I remember being a bit hesitant about having my back "cracked" and feeling awkward about … Continue reading Incredibly well adjusted

Sometimes I think I am a pretty lucky lady, other times I know I am a very lucky lady. Like Thursday evening when I got to participate in a Cookie Tasting. Yeah, I said Cookie Tasting. You may not know this, but I love cookies. If I had a choice between cookies, cake or pie, … Continue reading Delso cookies!
