Party Week

Been pretty busy the past seven days with parties in three cities in two countries.

First up was



Food Network Canada's 10th Anniversary Party in Toronto, Canada.



I was joined by David and Nina Rocco from La Dolce Vita, Nadia G. from Bitchin' Kitchen, and Laura Calder from French Food at Home.

Two days later



I was in New Orleans with all it's Bourbon Street excitement




for Emeril Lagasse's annual fundraiser. Emeril, wife Alden, and kids were there.



Along with authentic Creole entertainers

Then back to New York



for the event celebrating Barney's holiday store window display featuring Food Network stars Ina Garten and Sandra Lee

Paula Deen was there



The crowd went wild for Bobby Flay, Paula Deen, and Emeril



Finally the National Urban League fund-raising dinner



featuring NY mayor Michael Bloomberg



The Rev. Al Sharpton



and British pop star Corinne Bailey Rae.

I'm really worn out and looking forward to taking Thanksgiving week off.
