11th Annual Sugar and Champagne Affair - February 1, 2012

The 11th Annual Sugar and Champagne Affair is sold out. You might be wondering why I would be so silly to post about an event in which there is no hope of purchasing tickets to eat delicious food from some of the best chefs in DC. I'm not a cruel person. I promise. Well, I'm not cruel most of the time and this is one of those times.

I'm writing about this event because you can still help the Washington Humane Society even if you can't buy a ticket for the affair. If you are an animal lover and you want to contribute to the non-profit, please consider submitting a donation here. You can also help by volunteering. And if you are interested in attending a Sugar and Champagne Affair, keep an eye out for the 2013 date. I'm sure it will be amazing.

I leave you with Norah Jones' lyrics to "Man of the Hour."

"It's him or me
That's what he said
But I can't choose
Between a vegan and a pot head

So I chose you, because you're sweet
And you give me lots of lovin' and you eat meat
And that's how you became
My only man of the hour

You never lie
And you don't cheat
And you don't have any baggage tied to your forefeet
Do I deserve, to be the one, who will feed you breakfast, lunch,
And dinner and take you to the park at dawn
Will you really be
My only man of the hour

I know you'll never bring me flowers
Flowers they will only die
And though you'll never take a shower together
I know you'll never make me cry
You never argue
You don't even talk
And I like the way you let me lead you
When we go outside and walk
Will you really be
My only man of the hour?
My only man of the hour.
My only man of the hour."
