The Diva That Ate New York // Menus

When I cook for events at home, I go into a zen like cooking trance.  I can do it for hours and hours without eating or talking to anyone. Here are some menus for meals and events chez moi. My only rule:No pot luck! You wind up with too many desserts. I make the food, you bring the drinks.

Happy birthday, Grandma-ma!

The highlight of my mother’s birthday celebration this year was the presence of her granddaughter Janea and her gift, a photo book of Janea we made at MyPublisher.com which came out surprisingly beautiful (O, me of little faith—I was worried about the resolution and quality of the printing) and of course the food!!!

Brunch for Obama

I decided that fried chicken and waffles was the proper meal to serve for the Inauguration Brunch. Originally I had planned a dinner until I found out that inaugurations take place during the day. Cooking is my thing, not political procedure. This was also a 50th-birthday celebration for my dear friend Frank, whose birthday wish was that Obama would get elected.
