Darlings,
I hope you all enjoyed, like I did, the Veterans’ Day weekend. I really enjoyed the beautiful warm temperature that Mother Nature blessed us on Monday. Unfortunately, it is not going to last.
The @CityOfNOLA will activate the freeze plan starting 8 am Tuesday through 11 am Wednesday to provide shelter for the homeless. Call 504-821-2222 to report someone in need of shelter.
The coldest temperatures yet this season are expected Tuesday and Wednesday, with “feels like” temps as low as the mid-20s. Plan ahead to keep people, pets and plants safe. ready.nola.gov
This weekend was a very memorable one for football fans: good and bad.
Congratulations to LSU for their super victory against Alabama. Unfortunately, our beloved Saints experienced a shocking defeat against our archrivals, the Atlanta Falcons. Hopefully, we learned from our mistakes and will win the next game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday, November 17 at Tampa. Geaux Saints!
This past week was a very hectic one for me since I was invited to more social soirees than I could possible attend but enjoyed attending the following:

Album French Quarter Advocates's Fair Do Do (20 photos)
The French Quarter Advocates, is a Neighborhood Organization coming together with residents, business owners, and with anyone who wants to contribute to the welfare of the French Quarter!
Funds raised at the soiree, will be used to support the French Quarter Task Force. They are practically the only source of safety in the French Quarter neighborhood, and without them it would be lawless.
Album The National WWII Museum's 2019 Victory Ball (29 photos and 2 videos)
I joined The National WWII Museum on Friday, November 8, for a salute to the men and women who dedicate their lives to our freedom. As in the past, The National WWII Museum's 2019 Victory Ball was a very memorable one
The annual ball was a lavish reception featuring cocktails and culinary creations by The American Sector Restaurant & Bar, live music, entertainment and dancing, as well as unlimited access to the museum’s amazing pavilions and exhibit galleries throughout the evening. Culinary Creations were by The American Sector Restaurant & Bar

2019 Boudin, Beer and Bourbon
What a fun and delicious soiree. I loved seeing all the beloved chefs and tasting their delicious boudin dishes. On Friday, November 8, the fabulous Emeril Lagasse Foundation's Boudin, Bourbon & Beer took place at Champions Square.
Last year, almost 5,000 people attended the South’s biggest boudin bash to savor creative dishes from more than 70 of the country’s best chefs. In addition to top culinary talent, the event featured bars stocked with a variety of local craft beers from Abita Beer and bourbon cocktails from Buffalo Trace.
As in the past, I loved seeing my darling longtime Patrick van Hoorebeek serving delicious Mum Champagne in his red outfit. The bars also featured premium spirits, fine wines and more provided by sponsors Au Bon Climat, JUSTIN Vineyards & Winery, Landmark Vineyards and FIJI Water. Guests also enjoyed a cigar-tasting tent hosted by sponsor Nat Sherman, as well as a silent auction curated by featured chefs.

The New Orleans Hispanic Heritage Foundation's 2019 Azúcar Ball "Nueva Vista Social Club"
The New Orleans Hispanic Heritage Foundation will host its annual fundraiser Azúcar Ball on Saturday, November 23, 2019
at the Hyatt Regency Hotel.located at 601 Loyola Avenue, in downtown New Orleans.
The 2019 Azúcar Ball: Nueva Vista Social Club will be presented by Pan-American Life Insurance Group. The event will start with a Patron Party at 7 p.m. followed by the Ball at 8 p.m. and will feature food from some of the best restaurants in the city, vibrant Latin music, and an enticing silent auction. The theme for this year’s event will highlight the many contributions and influences of Cuba and its music to the city of New Orleans. Nueva Vista Social Club is inspired by the documentary Tuba to Cuba which follows New Orleans' famed Preservation Hall Jazz Band as they retrace their musical roots from the storied city of jazz to the shores of Cuba and in turn discover a connection that runs much deeper than could have been imagined. The majority of the proceeds from the event will provide scholarships to outstanding high school Hispanic students in our community, who have demonstrated the desire to excel through their academic record.
The Gálvez Cup, the highest recognition awarded by the NOHHF, is presented to that person or entity that has been, through unselfish effort and devotion, of the greatest assistance to the Foundation in its work.
This year’s Gálvez Cup recipient is Beatriz Ball.
