Nobody knows the truffles I've seen -- except, perhaps, Mrs. Butterworth

What's the most embarrassing thing ...

As I confessed in my Tuesday column, I'm a clumsy hooker.

But I'm also nosy, as I want to hear about YOUR most embarrassing ...

Is it really vandalism when it's a sticker with the words "nipple clamps"?

Aside from enjoying humorous ones spied on others' automobiles, I'm not a fan of bumper stickers.

I blame my father, ...

Where is the oddest place you've ever taken cover during bad weather?

During last week's bad weather, when a tornado siren sounded around midnight, I was caught at a midtown QuikTrip.

I like mine in 32-ounce QuikTrip cups with a blue lid and red straw -- makes me feel patriotic.


Did you know that National Truffle Day is coming up? "Truffles" as in "I'd like a box of chocolate-raspberry" vs. "let's find a pig, fly to France and go rootin' for."

Don't go rushing to Hallmark just yet, though, because I don't think they'll have any Happy Truffle Day cards. Where you need to head, however, is your favorite spirits center (doesn't that have a nicer ring than "likker store"?).

To celebrate the day, the lovely folks at Frangelico shared a tasty treat with me, which I had to share with you in case you're not working and could have one in my honor. Because I really, really need one today. And as the Frangelico bottle reminds me of the naughty twin sister of Mrs. Butterworth, I felt even more compelled to share. Why? Because I love pancakes.

Anyhoo, master mixologist James Moreland created the very first Frangelico Truffle Cocktail, using a simple recipe of just three ingredients: Frangelico, vodka and espresso. It's perfect to pair with a light brunch or a mere chocolate fix.

Frangelico Truffle


1 ounce Frangelico
1 ounce SKYY vodka
.75 ounce espresso

1. Shake with ice, and serve chilled and up in a cocktail or martini glass.
2. Dust with dark chocolate shavings.

Peace, love and Mrs. Butterworth ... XOXO
