I know we can only say things like "before Covid" and "after Covid" for so long before it starts getting old. I promise I think this is the last time I'm bringing such a thing up as as excuse for plans, but in this case, it's needed...
Our Kentucky Derby weekend was different before Covid (see? ...
And, They’re Off!
Friends, my best wishes to you this fabulous Kentucky Derby weekend! I hope your shoes are flats. I hope your Bourbon is strong. I hope you cash those big money tickets.

How to Host a Derby Party
There are a few things we Louisvillians take seriously. UK versus UL in any sport. Our Bourbon. Any recipe remotely resembling fried chicken. And the Derby.
Sure, you'll have a few naysayers that believe that the Derby and all of the festivities surrounding it are nothing but a bunch of pomp ...
Two Derby Time Cocktails (that aren’t Juleps)
Hear me out... I love a julep. Well. I love a julep when it's done well. This is rare. Ask most how to make a mint julep, and they'll tell you to muddle mint (which makes it bitter, in my opinion) with some sugar, toss in some bourbon and water it down. Yuck.
I have a julep recipe from ...
An Easter Table with Supermarket Flowers

For the Gals

Kentucky Derby: 100 Days Out
Many years ago, in the time before Covid took us all by surprise, I was proud to gloat that I'd only missed one Derby since I was 18.

Cheers to 2022
The last couple of years have been a little difficult to say the least! I'm wishing you the best this year. Whether you were surrounded by loved ones and bottles of Champagne, or if you were snuggled at home alone with a book watching the ball drop, I hope that this calendar flip brings us a ...
Merry Christmas
From Bryan and I to you, Best Wishes for a beautiful holiday.
