As the 1939 cult movie classic, "The Women," starring Norma Shearer, Joan Crawford, and Rosalind Russell pronounced, the only nail polish suitable for gold-digging, scheming, and social climbing is "Jungle Red...Dahling." You might want to hold on to your wig because that's the name of this year's Mother's Day show, benefiting Desert AIDS Project, when Les Dames du Soleil return to the Wyndham Hotel on Sunday, May 11. Ever-so-smart cocktails will be served at 6:00 PM, followed by a wickedly funny, razor-sharp performance at 7:00 PM. Tickets are $30 and sure to sell out fast - with standing room only offered at $20 - so call J.P. Allen at Desert AIDS Project at 760.323.2118, ext. 266.

Palm Springs, California (April 14, 2008) The names define Glenda Guilfoyle and her being. She reels them off in sequential order: "Stacy, Stephanie, Karin, Sean, Curt and the twins, Victoria and Vanessa." The oldest, Stacy, is 47 and a burgeoning fine artist of Hawaiian motifs. They are the seven children of the classic septuagenarian hoofer who performs in the chorus line of "long-legged lovelies" for the long-running Fabulous Palm Springs Follies. But wait. Add to her progeny ten grandchildren, from ages 20 to infancy, and again Glenda proudly recites and without a hitch: "Corey, Courtney, Brett, Connor, Maci, Ross, Shane, Kaitlyn, Gabrielle and, the newest one, Lilyana." She displays a...

Hundreds gathered in the Spa Casino's Cascade Room Friday, April 11, as VIPs sampled chefs' offerings and sipped examples of Chateau Montelena's vintages.
 One of Montelena's vintages was a 1998 Chardonny. That year's late harvest and cooler vintage resulted in a fruit-flavor intensity. It is spicier than average, somewhat close to a Riesling. The color is golden with a hint of apple green.
It is a delight to the eye, nose, and palate.
