There's always a collective sigh of relief come the Monday after the first Saturday in May. The airports go back to their normal buzz, diets begin again (goodbye, Hot Browns), and we Louisville locals take a deep breath of the lilies and roses that have adorned our homes through the weekend, hoping ...
Off to the Races…

The Kentucky Derby Table
Friends, please excuse my recycled photos here. When my girlfriends' accountability group got together for a pre-Derby brunch in 2019, I pieced things together for a celebratory table that I'm almost sure I could never top!
Kentucky Derby gatherings themselves are as old as the race itself! ...
