Ladies night out at the Atlanta History Center on April 15, 2013. It was a few hours of very welcome distraction from the awful and bewildering bombings at the Boston Marathon which had just occurred earlier that afternoon. We went to hear Curtis Stone, celebrity chef, TV personality/host of Top Chef Masters. I had no real notion of what was in store for the evening; I wasn't sure if it would be a cooking demo, or traditional lecture. It turned out to be a delightful, entertaining event. It felt like we were a talk show audience. The highlights were when the affable Australian chef took questions from the audience. We fell in love with Pips, a woman (with an Australian daughter-in-law, no less) who was herself in love with THE chef and guest-of-honor. Tons of laughter at their banter...and Pips entertained Chef Stone enough for him to whip out his phone and videotape her. Perhaps we'll find it on YouTube... It was a fun evening that ended with a book signing. You can read more about him here: http://www.curtisstone.com/About-Curtis.aspx
He sure is eye candy....candy? No, dessert!
