Easter Weekend - Ta-Tas, Nibbles, and Sisters

Pictures: Click here to view.

The weekend started with a little adventure with Jeff. He had tickets to SF Gay Men's Chorus' presentation of Bump and Grind Cabaret. I thought it was going to be in the Regency Ballroom, instead it was upstairs in the Regency Lodge. This was not my first time in the room. Miss Kris and I went to a holiday party for her company several years ago and now she's married (assumably doing a little bump and grind action herself!).

The room was reminiscent of a speakeasy. There were tables and things kicked off with the Twilight Vixen Revue and the introduction to Cabaret, Wilkommen.

This was not my favorite show. It was fun hanging out with Jeff, but there is something wrong when there are more ta-tas on display (see the Vixens website). At one point, the host donned a dress and in a monotone delivery, stated, "You didn't think I would go an entire evening without putting on a dress." Drag Queen, especially those on stage should have a personality. This poor thing used cue cards and was so dull that I had to question the sanity of the bear sitting next to us, who bellowed with such joy, you'd think someone put cake in front of him. After the show, we to see some other show girls at Divas ... can't wait until my brother is in town to take him on a tour. Of course, he's busy trying to kill himself in Utah, but that is another story.

Taste of Yountville

The Mustard Festival is always fun. We usually head to Calistoga but we stopped mid-valley to enjoy the festival in Yountville. Wine, food, and a walk in the sun.

Not a bad way to spend the day ... though my car is starting to sound like a Southwest airliner that hasn't seen it regular checkup.

We also took the opportunity to check out the new Iranian winery ... hmm ... tacky comes to mind. But that would be judgemental and I that just wouldn't be right on Easter weekend.

Speaking of tacky ... we visited the garden of the French Laundry and use the bathroom. It was lovely!

Easter morning Frank and I decided to head over to 2223 for brunch. This was followed by heading down to sister's 29 annual celebration. Duboce park was packed with celebrants ... and there was a sighting or two of Jesi.

Happy Easter!
