Baby It’s Cold Out There (But It’s Warm Inside)
Would you believe I have even another story about a coat check in NY? Yes, it’s true. I was invited to a cocktail party at Gordon Ramsay’s fancy schmancy restaurant. I had a lovely time. After my coat wreckage incident several … Continue reading
A Fine Saturday
