Now I know how DeNiro feels. Or Barack. Or these ten folks (pay particular attention to 80’s screen idol(?) Corey Haim’s defining moment). Yes, it’s fun and oh-so-self-indulgent to wax narcissistically about one’s past, present and future. But Vegas Wineaux’s Irene King (one of our newest and fun-est Friends In Food) asked, so The Food Gal and I met her for an hour of chit chat and friendly interrogation.
And as long as ELV is being self-indulgent….Hey! It’s my blog and I can be as f*cking self-indulgent as I want….I thought a couple of corrections were in order.
She describes me as 5’9″ (I wish), very fit (hardly), and The Food Gal as lovely and long suffering (correctomundo on both counts).
Hey John!
It’s all about perception! You seem tall and fit, which, therefore, you are! What a fun time I had with you and your sweetie.
Don’t let him fool you, folks. They are both two of the warmest, loveliest, and most articulate people I’ve met in a long time. But we *do* have to get Alexandra up to snuff on wine … ;-)
