I am:
Hungry, a host, a producer, a little tipsy
I live in:
St. Matthews
About Me:
The last year has been a fantastic adventure. Learning to listen to my intuition, because it's truly never been wrong. I only get into trouble when I don't listen to it. Left my job in April of 2007 to pursue a few months overseas in South America. I've been back since October '07 and started my own business, Bon Vivant Savant (TM), doing event consulting as well as plan local events for fun and charity as well. I'm super excited about the programs I've created and I'm working on franchising the concept. I think I may have my first test market in Dallas, TX, but am hoping to find one or two more as well. I do Supper Speakeasys (my underground dining and the first here in Louisville), Wine & Wisdom Dinners, Nibble & Sip Happy hours (which are sort of like a farmer's market in happy hour style and promotes only local producers, artists and venues) as well as an outdoor movie series and the first Theatre Hop. I'm really excited to find this network and look forward to participating!

Fall events are on the calendar for Oct/Nov in Louisville

Mmmm, hot cider and pumpkin flavored everything!



Happy Fall everyone! I know the economy has hit a lot of us below the belt, but hopefully some of the upcoming events can bring a smile to your face – and not too great a shock on your pocket book. We do still have some of our regular events such as the Supper Speakeasy and the Wine & Wisdoms, but we are adding several lower cost events to the roster as well to ensure that we all still have a great way to get together and… Continue

Nice to meet you. I plan on " opening " my first underground restaurant soon...

but, also, I would like to plan an breast cancer cookoff. I never meet my ex-wifes mom due to that she passed away of breast cancer, and an ex-girlfriends mom is a survivor...what do you suggest for a cookoff / benifit for a great cause....Also, ever plan on visiting the N.H. area soon?
