What Are You Doing New Years Eve?

Not only a great tune by Ella Fitzgerald  but also a valid question!

I know here in the Lower Mainland we have the reputation for deciding things last minute, but it’s not too early to start thinking about it!

At almost 94 years old, the fabulous Dal Richards Orchestra is performing again at the River Rock Casino and Resort in Richmond and I am THRILLED to join him as we ring in 2012!

Dal with his Gals! Jennifer Hayes and myself

I like Bacon and all….

Now I like bacon just like many Canadians….but this new release from J&D Foods in Seattle ”might” be a little too out there…

From the makers of Baconnaise, Bacon Salt, Bacon Flavoured Popcorn and Bacon Flavoured Jones Soda (all of which I have tried on Breakfast Television…here’s the VIDEO of a chat we did on BT)…something for those of you who just need that something “extra”.

BAcon or sex? why choose?

Not sure who their market might be…likely a novelty item that will end up at some pranksters gift exchange. Hey I don’t judge.

If you crave bacon or….something else in the morning – you can  check out their website for more details :-)

Good Morning (good morning!),

“If they’re legends…they’ve played the YALE”  is the statement at the top of the Website for the Yale Hotel - and in their 130 year history they have had the “who’s who” of the Blues world on their stage!

On Monday, November 21, the Yale is closing it’s doors for 12 months for renovations – you can read the story HERE.

To celebrate the last 130 years, a series of concerts will take place with a big finale taking place on  November 20 from 2pm-6 pm. Performers for the A Finale include Big Band Blues with Dal Richards Orchestra featuring Jim Byrnes  -

I will be on hand to sing a few tunes with Dal and the rest of his “Gals”. Needless to say, I am honoured and thrilled to be a part of the celebration of this Vancouver landmark! For more information on all the events surrounding the 130th Birthday of the Yale, you can check out their website.

Breakfast Television will also be on location on Monday November 14 to give you a bit of a preview and share some memories!
