Meet Lola, dinner party hostess extraordinaire

This past Saturday evening, I attended a dinner party at the home of some friends in the Canyon Country Club Estates area of South Palm Springs. Our hostess for the evening was "Lola, the dinner party hostess extraordinaire" (pictured left). Lola welcomed visitors to her home with unbridled enthusiasm. She was elegantly attired, wearing a stunning black fur ensemble, which was perfect for a winter's evening in the desert. We enjoyed cocktails outdoors, poolside and relaxed under the star-filled desert sky. I chatted endlessly while sipping a Cosmopolitan martini and catching up with the goings-on of our social circle. The second Cosmo was as delicious as the first...but soon it was time for dinner...

It was served with a dollop of fresh whipped cream and sliced strawberries that had been soaking in something yummy. It was a fun evening, but soon our lovely hostess Lola was exhausted, so we headed home, satisfied after a delicious meal.

  6. Her name was Lola-- now she's a dog now! A reddish lobster in her mouth and a mansion in the south! She is a hostess too! And her guests improved! Rick Rockhill is her guest and now she parties with the best!

    This song will be in my head all day!
