  1. Eat, Drink and Be Merry

    For the record, I don’t like St. Patrick’s Day. I mean, I like it in that it is a lovely Irish hol­i­day — and I’m a good Irish girl — but I don’t like that it’s an excuse for peo­ple to get crazy drunk and paint their faces green. Also, they don’t really eat corned […]

  2. Da Super Bowl and Dem Saints!

    Hav­ing been a standup come­dian for 14 years, I am always enter­tain­ing at some­one else’s party, never host­ing my own and some­times I just want to do it my way.  But no mat­ter what in this world is hap­pen­ing, I do throw one party a year and it’s a Super Bowl party.   This year I […]

  4. Birthday Humbug! (kinda)

    Jesus and I have some­thing in com­mon.  We both have Decem­ber birth­days.  The prob­lem is, His always, always upstages mine.  In the past I’ve had lav­ish events thrown for me by lov­ing friends and I’ve even shame­lessly thrown a cou­ple myself.  I’ve tried every­thing: themes, bowl­ing, Broad­way shows, amuse­ment parks, catered buf­fets.  But noth­ing ever […]

  5. Ah… Falling into Fall

    Isn’t Thanks­giv­ing grand?  What a tremen­dous hol­i­day.  No gifts to buy — just straight up glut­tony and time with friends and fam­ily.  “Drunken Pump­kin,” cre­ated at the bar at Commander’s Palace, puts you in the per­fect frame of mind for the hol­i­days and the Fall.  Relax – chill, for cry­ing out loud.  It will all […]

  6. Sweet Adelaide, genesis of a classic

    I wanted to cre­ate a cock­tail for the Sweet gals to cel­e­brate their first depar­ture from NOLA.  I thought of the women that would be tak­ing this cruise so I did some­thing that would fit in as light and  refresh­ing to pair with all of the spicy and rich food that we serve in the […]
