NATIONAL BUBBLY DAY
Pour a glass of sparkling sunshine to celebrate National Bubbly Day every first Saturday in June!
Bubbly, or sparkling wine, reflects the excitement associated with memorable events. Effervescent bubbles combine with the appealing flavors and aromas ranging from citrus, apple, and pear to toasted fruit, spices, and nuts. Whether paired with a full meal or light appetizers, these wines satisfy the requirement for an unforgettable celebration.
However, different areas of the world create their own special brand of bubbly according to strict methods and select grapes which produce a sparkling wine unique to each region.
Produced in the rolling hills of Spain, Cava fills a glass with bright citrus and fruit notes. Protected in Spain, this bubbly must meet stringent requirements to earn the name Cava. Using only the “Traditional Method” which requires a second fermentation in the bottle.
While many people refer to bubbly as Champagne, to earn the name the wine must be made in the Champagne region of France with certain kinds of grapes and a specific method. When celebrating with Champagne, enjoy the crisp flavors of apple or a nutty, sweet finish.
Another sparkle on the bubbly scene takes us to Italy and Prosecco. Made primarily from the Glera grape, Prosecco celebrates refreshing floral and fruit notes.

The 26-part cooking series, produced by WYES-TV in New Orleans, was shot on location at Dooky Chase’s Restaurant with dishes prepared by younger generations of the Chase family who have led the restaurant since Leah’s death in 2019.
Viewers will meet Leah’s grandson, Edgar “Dook” Chase IV, who now oversees the restaurant’s kitchen; her niece Cleo Robinson, who joined Leah in the kitchen in 1980; and the restaurant’s newest chef, Leah’s great-granddaughter Zoe Chase. Paired with some of the menus are specialty cocktails crafted by Leah’s granddaughter Eve Marie Haydel, the restaurant’s beverage manager who has updated drink recipes from the restaurant’s earlier days. Granddaughter Chase Kamata narrates. Each 30-minute episode explores a new take on Creole classics and a different chapter of the restaurant’s history.
See it every Saturday at 10am and on Sundays at 11:30am. Watch on WYES-TV and stream on wyes.org/live and on the WYES and PBS Apps. Out of WYES’ viewing area?

What does "apathetic" mean?
Enthusiastic
Passionate
Indifferent
Excited
What does "apathetic" mean?
Indifferent
The word "indifferent" is a fitting answer to the question "What does 'apathetic' mean?" A person who is apathetic lacks interest, enthusiasm, or concern about something. They are indifferent towards it. They may not care about the outcome, have a lack of motivation, or feel disconnected from the situation. This indifference can arise from various reasons, such as depression, exhaustion, or a feeling of hopelessness. Being apathetic can have negative consequences, both for the individual and the people around them, as it can lead to an inability to take action or make decisions.

une 3 and 4- Full Strawberry Moon
June’s full moon will reach peak illumination at 11:43 PM EDT on June 3. Just after sunset, look in the southeastern sky to watch the moon rise above the horizon. June’s full moon is typically the last full moon of the spring or the first of the summer.
The name Strawberry Moon is not a description of its color, but instead a reference to the ripening of “June-bearing” strawberries that are ready to be gathered and gobbled. For thousands of years, the Algonquian, Ojibwe, Dakota, and Lakota peoples used this term to describe a time of great abundance. Some tribal nations in the northeastern US, including the Wampanoag nation, celebrate Strawberry Thanksgiving to show appreciation for the spring and summer’s first fruits.
Other names for June’s full moon include the Gardening Moon or Gitige-giizis in Anishinaabemowin (Ojibwe), the Moon of Birthing or Ignivik in Inupiat, and the River Moon or Iswa Nuti in the Catawba Language of the Catawba Indian Nation in South Carolina.
June 21- Summer Solstice
Summer officially begins in the Northern Hemisphere at 10:58 AM EDT on June 21 which marks the summer solstice. This is when the sun travels along its northernmost path in the sky. At the solstice, Earth’s North Pole is at its maximum tilt of roughly 23.5 degrees towards the sun. It is also the longest day of the year, and you can expect roughly 16 hours of daylight on June 21 in some spots in the Northeast.
After June 21, the sun appears to reverse course and head back in the opposite direction, towards the south, until the next solstice in December.
June 27- Bootid Meteor Shower Maximum
June’s Bootid meteor shower begins on June 22, but it is expected to reach its peak rate of meteors around 7 PM EDT on June 27. The Bootid meteors should be visible when the constellation Bootes is just above the horizon. The moon will be in its first quarter phase at the shower’s peak, and will set at about 1:30 in the morning, making for minimal light interference later in the night.
June’s Bootid meteor shower was created by the comet 7P/Pons-Winnecke and expected to last until July 2.
The same skygazing rules that apply to pretty much all space-watching activities are key this month: Go to a dark spot away from the lights of a city or town and let the eyes adjust to the darkness for about a half an hour. Then, just sit back and let the summer skies dazzle.

CHOCOLATE MACAROON DAY | JUNE 3
Each year, National Chocolate Macaroon Day celebrates a tasty treat. Last month we celebrated National Macaroon Day on May 31st. Now we add a little chocolate to the mix, sweetening the deal.
The main ingredient is always shredded coconut, usually sweetened and sometimes toasted. Other ingredients include flour, sugar or sweetened condensed milk, and egg whites and flavoring. Once the ingredients are combined, the mixture is dropped by spoonfuls onto baking sheets and baked. Chocolate is added either to the batter or the baked cookie is dipped into melted chocolate. While these cookies are quite beautiful, people either love or hate coconut.
These sturdy cookies go well with coffee and tea, too. Serve them with biscotti, shortbread or lemon cookies to add variety.

Ain't There (dere) No More - New Orleans

On February 16, 1892, a devastating fire tore through what is now the 700 block of Canal Street, destroying the Touro Buildings. This image was taken shortly thereafter and shows the citizens of New Orleans staring at the ruins of A. Shwartz & Sons, B. Fellman's, Werlein's Music Store, and Leopold Levy’s drapery store. This was the commercial hub of New Orleans, serviced by the numerous streetcar lines that can be seen in the center foreground.
Sadly, both the patriarchs of Shwartz and Fellman's stores died within months of the fire.
On the left of the photo, you will notice the base of one of the ‘moon-towers’ that lined Carondelet Street starting on Canal Street. The installation of ‘moon-towers’ in New Orleans was part of the city’s ambitious modernization effort to bring arc lighting to the city in 1881. The Southwestern Brush-Light Company was established in the city in 1881 with offices at 38 Union Street and a workshop on Union and Dryades Street. They were the exclusive licensee of “the Brush lighting apparatus.”
New Orleans was not alone in constructing moon-towers. In fact, there are several such structures still standing in Austin, Texas. Thirteen to be exact which are all that remain of the thirty-one towers they purchased from Detroit in 1894.Detroit retained ninety-one towers. There were also moon-towers in San Jose, California (1881), and Wabash, Indiana (1880).

The Carrollton Shopping Center circa 1952 at the corner of South Carrollton Avenue and Tulane Avenue, taken from the top of Pelican Stadium across the street. There was a Walgreen's Drug Store, a Maison Blanche store, the Mid-City Bowling Center, and another business on the far right.
Please note that this is NOT the same shopping center that had a Gus Mayer and Labiche’s and Piccadilly Cafeteria. That was on the other side of the Interstate where the COSTCO is today. Another small strip center where Security Sporting Goods was located was farther down on the other side of the Palmetto Canal.

Blue Star Museums Program
Through the Blue Star Museums program, The National WWII Museum offers free admission to the nation’s military personnel and their families this summer from Armed Forces Day through Labor Day. Help us kick off this program on May 20 with these upcoming events!
The National WWII Museum and the Blue Star Museums network have partnered to offer free admission to the nation’s active-duty military personnel—including National Guard and Reserve—and their families each summer. Starting on Armed Forces Day (Saturday, May 20) through Labor Day (Monday, September 4), active-duty military families must show a Geneva Conventions common access card (CAC), DD Form 1173 ID card (dependent ID), or a DD Form 1173-1 ID card to Visitor Services staff for complimentary Museum Campus Passes for the military ID holder and up to five family members. The military ID holder can be either an active-duty servicemember or other dependent family member with the appropriate ID card. The active-duty member does not have to be present for family members to use the program.
The free admission program is available for those currently serving in the US military—Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, Space Force—as well as members of the Reserves, National Guard, US Public Health Service Commissioned Corps, and NOAA Commissioned Corps.
Blue Star Museums program admission also includes complimentary entry to the 4D film experience Beyond All Boundaries and the interactive Final Mission: USS Tang Submarine Experience.

Audubon’s Cool Zoo
Starting on May 29, the water park will be open daily until Aug. 5, when returns to weekends-only operation. The park closes for the season in September.
The details
Audubon Zoo guests will be able to cool off twice a day at the water park from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. and 2 to 5 p.m. each day. The Cool Zoo closes every day from 1 to 2 p.m. for cleaning and maintenance.
All the fan-favorite features will be there: the alligator water slide, the spider monkey soaker, water-spitting snakes and shady spots for adults.
The Gator Run lazy river offers visitors the option to cool down by floating atop a tube along a 750-foot long course that is 3-feet deep and 10-feet wide. It also features two sand beaches and water cannons that can be used to spray other visitors as they float on down the river. It also includes showers, restrooms, lockers, outdoor seating, a private area for nursing mothers and the "Gator Bites'' concession stand.
Rafts are included in the admission price for Gator Run, and anyone shorter than 48 inches will need a life jacket supplied by Audubon Zoo.
Outside food and drinks are welcomed in both Cool Zoo and Gator Run, but the size of coolers and ice chests cannot exceed 28 quarts. Glass containers and disposable straws and lids are not permitted for the safety of the zoo's animals. Audubon may search coolers.
Get tickets
Cool Zoo tickets can be purchased online and at the zoo's front gate. Regular admission to Cool Zoo, including Gator Run, is $9 for Audubon Nature Institute Members and $12 for non-members, plus Audubon Zoo admission.

KREWE DE PINK Presents DEATH BY CHOCOLATE…NOT BREAST CANCER: A Fundraiser for Breast Cancer Research on June 17, 2023
New Orleans, LA — Be a part of the fight against breast cancer while enjoying a feast for the senses. Join Krewe de Pink for their fourth annual Death by Chocolate…NOT Breast Cancer fundraiser. “Breast Cancer is a leading cause of cancer death in women and a disease that has touched so many we know - yet how to get involved in the fight can be difficult” says Chris Costello, Krewe de Pink president. That is why Krewe de Pink created another fun way for people to support Breast Cancer Research.
Death by Chocolate…NOT Breast Cancer is a chocolate and champagne tasting event which will be held on Saturday, June 17, 2023 from 5:30 pm– 9:00 pm at the Schoen Mansion, 3827 Canal Street, New Orleans. VIP tickets are $100 and are sold in advance only. General admission is $60 per person in advance and $75 at the door. VIP ticket holders will have exclusive access to the event at 5:30 pm with local celebrity judges, the 2023 Sweet Survivors and special takeaways. Tickets can be purchased at www.krewedepink.org.
Krewe de Pink is working in partnership with Delgado Community College’s Culinary and Pastry Arts Program. The students and alumni members will be creating tasty chocolate bites made with chocolate donated by Callebaut Chocolate culminating in a live competition. Each participant will be judged by guests and local celebrity chefs on their chocolate-inspired dishes – both sweet and savory with 1st Place prizes being awarded for each category.
As part of the program, we will honor this year’s Sweet Survivors: Jonell Deshotel, Amelia Finley Leonardi, Mary Franco, Camey Grau, Kristyn Kemp, Holly McCollum, Ashley O'Bryan, Gina Pausina-Cherry, Nancy Pesses, Amy Storms, Jo Ann Toomy. Guests will enjoy live music performed by the Delgado Jazz Combo, raffles and a fabulous pink photo station. Those who attend are in for a unique and memorable experience full of wonderful sights, scents, sounds and tastes all while supporting breast cancer research.
Hillery Moise, Event Co-Chair loves this event because “the money stays local to support breast cancer research and it supports students by giving them the opportunity to give back to the community while strengthening their skills. A Win-Win-Win.” Death by Chocolate…NOT Breast Cancer, like its sister fundraisers, Pink Bra Run and Krewe de Pink Prom directly supports breast cancer research at Tulane Cancer Center by earmarking money for much needed, non-grant supported research. Learn more at www.krewedepink.org.
Death by Chocolate…NOT Breast Cancer is made possible by the generosity of Jacob Schoen & Son, Delgado Community College’s Culinary and Pastry Arts Program and Krewe de Pink.

Our event will help speed the search for cures, by supporting the largest charity funder of childhood cancer research grants. Research is hope, and you can give kids that hope.
Be part of this cause in two ways:
1️⃣ Become a participant: We're looking for shavees to shave your head and stand in solidarity with these brave kids. Let's show them they're not alone!

St. John's Eve
Thursday, June 22 from 6:00-8:00pm
Exactly one hotel and one bar in the world do this …
Please join us in WHITE to celebrate the Solstice with the 150-year-old ceremony started by legendary Voodoo Queen Marie Laveau.
- Ceremony by local Vodou priestess Sallie Ann Glassman
-
Limited edition “JOHN’S WAY” hand-crafted ritual box - bottled elixir, gris-gris bag, candle, headscarf and incantation. Please purchase directly from Loa ($100.00). And, since we make only 21, kindly e-mail us to reserve your amazing box.
ST. JOHN’S EVE | VODOU RITUAL | SUMMER SOLSTICE
On Thursday, June 22 from 6:00 – 8:00 PM, International House celebrates the advent of sultry summer with reverence and Vodou mystique found only in this Northernmost Caribbean City. A local institution, the hotel observes Saint John’s Eve on or before John the Baptist’s birthday (June 24). For the 24th year, this ritual is led by Priestess Sallie-Ann Glassman, and as always in New Orleans, a cocktail is created to whet the experience. A head washing ceremony, Haitian Clarin rum, our own Abigail Gullo lighting the Solstice Bonfire Punch and the bottled elixir bring it all vividly to life. You, in casual white, do too.
Since St. John’s birth falls so near the June 21 Summer Solstice, there is little wonderment in anyone’s zodiac circle that the feast day of John the Baptist is linked inextricably to the pagan holiday Midsummer’s Night.
And while in South Louisiana the longest day of the year conjures imprint moments of relentless heat and humidity, to the ancient eye the Summer Solstice must have been a truly marvelous event, as the life-giving sun or Sun God appeared to stop still in the sky before dramatically reversing direction. Equally marvelous over the centuries, celebrations of this Solstice have featured rites of purification and renewal, promising a spiritual fresh start for the initiate. How perfect a legacy for a prophetic man - born 6 months before Jesus - whose mission was to announce that the Old Way would soon yield to a New Way.
Yet this is New Orleans so, of course, stir Voodoo into the sacred recipe. By cleverly forging a relationship between its divine spirits - the Lwa or Loa -and Christian saints, Vodou found new voice in a city that welcomed the vitalizing energies of French Caribbean culture - musically, spiritually, culinarily and otherwise. Indeed, with great panache, charismatic hairdresser and Priestess Marie Catherine Laveau reinvented
Vodou – then ridiculed and practiced only by an “underground” few - as “Voodoo" and popularized it to the highest strata of society in New Orleans.
Marie’s honored subject was the biblical St. John, always and forever a wild man both in life and in her ceremonies. Thousands attended, and this yearly gathering remains an exotic amalgam of Haitian Vodou, Roman Catholicism, Native American tradition and Masonic mystery. It has been conducted by a noble line of priestesses, from Marie the “Voodoo Queen” Laveau, whose grave 150 years after her death is still the second most visited in the nation, to internationally recognized local Priestess Sallie Ann Glassman today.
Author, speaker, teacher, artist and mountain climber, Sallie Ann ministers to many from her Island of Salvation Botanica store and Bywater temple. She was born in Maine, initiated a Vodou priestess in the rich Haitian Kreyol tradition and carries the spiritual torch for a new generation. This year she honors Marie, who rose dramatically from water to kick off wildly popular head-washings in Bayou St. John and who “they” say is rising now to become a Lwa.
Fittingly for 2022, Ms. Glassman’s altar in the hotel’s soaring lobby features a 10’ papier-mâché statue of Marie with billowing white sheers that bear her insignia and dance in summer's breeze. The sheers signify the porous veil between the spiritual and physical worlds. They represent the lwa veves of Ayizan for feminine power, Loko for masculine power, Legba for spiritual guidance and Petwo for meaning in our experiences. And, they serve as the beautiful, ethereal backdrop for Glassman’s popular ceremony of ritual drumming and dancing.
Once again, the gifted “spirit handlers” making drinks at the hotel’s Loa bar have co-created John’s Way with Glassman. “It is our annual limited-edition cocktail, a bottled elixir,” says Creative Director Abigail Gullo. Adds hotel owner Sean Cummings, “We create it to facilitate personal reinvigoration and the embrace of New Ways and fresh spiritual starts that we all need in life.” The elixir employs the seven waters which heighten healing properties of medicinal herbs grown by various of loa's gifted purveyors. It includes: Aguardiente (“firewater”), Genapi, (flavored with Wormwood blossoms), Kümmel (infused with Caraway), Spanish Moss, Jasmine, Sweet Olive and other herbs. Adds Gullo, “This elixir highlights the role of cocktails in New Orleans - ever-present during life’s epiphany moments.” John’s Way is presented in a wooden box, designed by artist Britney Penouilh. It contains a rich array of traditional altar elements, such as a gris-gris bag, candle, elixir, headscarf and ritual incantation. Each is revealed or concealed in specific, drawers, shelves and compartments, such that the composition itself forms a reverent altar to St. John and Marie Laveau. Says Glassman, “The gris-gris bags are for Marie, with lavender, jasmine, basil and hyssop for luck.”
With a nod to the June 21 Summer Solstice, only twenty-one John’s Way bottles will be sold. The beautiful keepsake box, with 500ml elixir, is $100.
With architecture, music, food, culture and climate unlike any other city in the world, International House celebrates seven New Orleans rituals throughout the year that give locals and visitors alike a lively, soulful, utterly authentic taste of this PLACE and its colorful characters.
For this High Holy Day on the Vodou calendar, please join us - cocktail in hand!
6:00p - Introduction by Priestess Sallie Ann Glassman

BREES DREAM FOUNDATION ANNOUNCES NOLA PICKLEBALL FEST
Annual event to be held at the New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center to serve as a major fundraiser for the Brees Dream Foundation
Brittany and Drew Brees announced today the creation of The NOLA Pickleball Fest, an annual event benefiting the Brees Dream Foundation. The inaugural event will be held August 10-13, 2023, at the New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center. Brees and the staff of the Brees Dream Foundation have been working closely with local tourism leaders at the Greater New Orleans Sports Foundation, New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center, and New Orleans & Company, as well as national companies Joola and The Kitchen, to organize all aspects of the event.
“Brittany and I could not be more excited to bring the first annual NOLA Pickleball Fest to New Orleans,” says Drew Brees. Combining one of the fastest growing and most enjoyable sports alongside a city that knows how to host a party will make this one of the premier events of the summer. It will be great food, music, events, and plenty of pickleball all inside the Convention Center, as we crown amateur champions and raise proceeds for the Brees Dream Foundation that will go towards our ongoing efforts in New Orleans.”
The NOLA Pickleball Fest (“The NOLA”) benefitting the Brees Dream Foundation is a unique, festival-style pickleball tournament featuring 24 tournament quality PickleRoll courts, live music, a celebrity exhibition match featuring Drew Brees, VIP experiences and much more. The NOLA will have three divisions of round robin play: women’s doubles, men’s doubles, and mixed doubles for skill levels 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, and 5.0+. There are two brackets to compete in: Open and 40 yrs. old and over. Featured matches will be played on a center court with grandstand seating as well as Kern Studio Mardi Gras floats for VIP viewing. Join us for an unforgettable experience and the ultimate pickleball party. To sign up or for more information, visit www.drewbrees.com.
“As pickleball participation continues to skyrocket, we’re honored and excited to be working with Drew and his team to create an annual pickleball festival that creates tourism for a higher purpose,” said Jay Cicero, President/CEO of the Sports Foundation. “The Brees Dream Foundation will distribute funds raised from the event to partner charitable organizations along the Gulf Coast. Given the combination of the sport’s popularity and charitable aspect of NOLA Pickleball Fest, it will surely be a hit among amateur and seasoned Pickleball players alike.”
“When it comes to sports, New Orleans is known for hosting iconic championship moments. With our singular, authentic culture and welcoming people, 26,0000 hotel rooms within two miles of the New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center, and unmatched hospitality, New Orleans is truly Built to Host,” said Walter J. Leger III, President & CEO of New Orleans & Company, the official destination sales, and marketing organization for the New Orleans tourism industry. “Crowds have always been drawn to New Orleans for sporting events of all types and sizes and now it is an honor to add the annual NOLA Pickleball Fest. This event will not only provide a critical summertime tourism boost for the New Orleans economy, but also help the entire community served by the Brees Dream Foundation.”
“The New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center is delighted to welcome the inaugural NOLA Pickleball Fest to New Orleans this August,” said Convention Center President Michael J. Sawaya. “Our involvement with NOLA Pickleball supports our mission to host events that positively impact the local economy. With the passion of the Brees Dream Foundation and the diligent support of local tourism leaders, there is no doubt the tournament will grow into the best tournament in the nation and benefit our community for years to come.”
Pickleball originated in the Pacific Northwest in the 1960s and combines elements of tennis, badminton, and ping-pong. It is the fastest-growing sport in the United States with annual increases of millions of people playing, according to a 2023 participation report by the Association of Pickleball Professionals.
Registration for the tournament opens in early June. To register to play, visit www.drewbrees.com. To volunteer, visit www.gnosports.com/volunteer.
