Last week there was so much excitement around the Saturday Night Live 40th Anniversary. Everyone has their favorite skit…the Spartan Cheerleader, Roseanne Rosannadanna, PAT, Weekend Update, Mary Katherine Gallagher…there are so many more. One of my favorites has to be the “Mom Jeans Skit”. If you are a SNL fan then I have the book for you, Live From New York: The Complete Uncensored History of Saturday Night Live told by its Stars, Writers and Guests. You can buy it HERE

Last week I went for lunch at the Inn at Pound Ridge by Jean-Georges. It was so wonderful and the perfect combination of modern chic meets rustic charm. At the Inn, “Jean‑George cultivates a truly seasonal, farm-to-table cuisine, with ingredients sourced from the Hudson Valley and New England, whenever possible. I thought I would share one of Jean-Georges famous salad recipes. It is a delicious Kale salad with Parmesan and Mint. Enjoy!
Though I think my book club ladies would really want me to post about our latest read, I could not resist blogging about the greatest book I heard about last week, “I’ll Have What She’s Having:My Adventures In Celebrity Dieting”. “A hilarious look at the eating habits of the fit and famous–from Gwyneth’s goji berry and quail egg concoctions to Jackie Kennedy’s baked potato and Beluga caviar regimen–Rebecca Harrington leaves no cabbage soup unstirred in her wickedly funny, wildly absurd quest to diet like the stars.
