For some time now we’ve been promising our vegetarian attendees of the Supper Club that we’ll devote a night just to them. What better day to do it than Earth Day, right?

As it turns out, we had all omnivores at the party, no veggies. However, that didn’t stop us from having some great food … mostly desserts actually.

The Farm and Potato Bleu Cheese pizzas from Flying Squirrel Pizza, veggie lasagna, a reconstructed edamame purée with micro greens and tiny tomatoes, pea “flan” with oyster mushrooms were the mains. For dessert we had a Momofuko sugar butter bomb that was so sweet we had to cut it with … yes … chocolate cheesecake. A lovely strawberry shortcake trifle, some super tasty baked blackberry deliciousness, a palette cleansing traditional Polish poppyseed cake.

All in all, it was delicious and sweet tooths were definitely satiated. I have to say, we did alright though I think some of the actual vegetarians would claim that this isn’t actually “standard vegetarian fare.”

If you attended, please paste a link to your recipe or just throw it inline in the comments below so that others can enjoy.

Before I started drinking when I was 28, I drank a ton of Shirley Temples. Pitchers of them in fact.

When we were in New York back in October a long lost friend took us to a hole in the wall place called Employees Only. In front, there’s a psychic. Behind a velvet curtain and an unassuming front is a phenomenal speak easy. EO pours some of the most amazing drinks I’ve ever had, including the best Manhattan in Manhattan. Another drink on their menu is the Lady Shirley, which with a splash of bourbon and some freshly squeezed lemon is exactly what I should have been drinking all those years.

As we prep for our monthly 3rd Sunday Supper Club, where the theme is pink, I’m enjoying a bit of nostalgia with the grenadine, lemon, and maraschino cherries but this new bourbon twist. Perhaps I’ll bust it out for everyone else to enjoy tonight as well.
