I had the pleasure of being invited to the Souls of My Sisters Press Reception this past Thursday, May 20th at the Covet Lounge.  This event had a wonderful turnout filled with intelligent, successful women throughout New York City.  Guest  included the likes of New York Socialite Bevy Smith, WBLS radio personality Egypt, Global Grind’s Milani Rose, and one of the most notorious party crashers in New York City (whose name I do not know) to name a few.  The Kitty Bradshaw was definitely in  good company.

Please check back for resident KittyBradshaw.com booknista Krishna’s book review, and  interview notes with the book contributors.

The purchase is available today, Tuesday, May 25th.  You can purchase at your local bookstore or on Amazon here.

The closer it gets to valentine’s day, the more speed dating events pop up.  OH Please, if you want speed dating without paying a fee, go to Excellent Dumpling House during the lunch time rush, lollll.   The place is so crowded that they match you up at different tables.  You are in such close proximity you have no choice but to talk to your impromptu blind lunch date.  Not to mention they have the best inexpensive, tasty lunch ever!

The Kitty Bradshaw’s personal favorite is the Sizzling Chicken w/ Black Bean Sauce and the Crab Rangoon.  Total Price: $12
