Summer is just around the corner and I’m feeling, I say, I’m feeling like I’m in a Southern mood. Like Scarlet O’Hara from “Gone with the Wind” or Ouiser Boudreaux from “Steel Magnolias.” I feel the South is going to rise again, this time with sexy-non-racist results.

I feel like a strong warm wind is blowing through my gauze curtains. Heavens!

We begin today’s show with a cocktail recipe that has a lot of gin and pink grapefruit juice, spiked with a lil’ mushed basil leaves. Its quite nice, however we just can’t decide on the name.

Here is the recipe:
Crush in a mortar and pestle:
1/2 tsp. of sugar
4 leaves of basil
Rinse the vessel with 1 oz. of fresh pink grapefruit juice, 1 oz of gin and 1/2 oz of orange flavored liquor and put it all into a shaker filled with ice. Shake into a tall glass with some soda water. It’s delicious!

What do you think we should name this cocktail?

Join Marc Felion and me, Fausto Fernós as we talk about super-cute actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt turning the tables on his paparazzi with sexy results, John McCain’s MySpace page getting hacked with sexy results, the unusual musical taste of gifted british teens and how dog food can make you sick, duh.

I don’t care how hungry you get, or how much Nomi Malone liked it in the film Showgirls, please don’t eat any Doggie Chow. Go vegan.

Our Feast of Fools family contest ends tomorrow! So make sure to email your entries today.

Serving it to you fresh and hot with lots of gay charm- Feast of Fools.
