Something cool if you live in the northern suburbs of Chicago...

Well friends, the ladies at Ripple Productions are at again and they have invited me Fall Harvest Feast! And you can go too (this event is 21 and over)! Meet there and and many other guests like:Chef Bolla Lozza of Tuscany, a 30-year veteran of Phil Stefani Signature Restaurants, SoriBeat, a Pungmul Korean percussion troupe, and K-Pop Dance Group. 


I am going to be there for the entire event, eating my chubby little heart out and if you love good food and good times, you'll be there too!
