In a Bill Cosby Storytelling style the “Chef” presents a menu of hilarious, nostalgic and sometimes moving and inspirational personal adventures. Reminisce as you travel back in time to “The Good Old Days” in Somerville/Cambridge with Peggy and “The Bookie in the Zoot Suit,” (That actually took place in Johnny D's in the 70's)“The Air Conditioner,” and “The Thanksgiving Turkey Story” Watch as “Giving the Dog a bath” takes shape & “The Boston Gardens” are born.
Eavesdrop as she shares her foibles with “Portable Phones,” and “Conflict & Resolution Waitress style. ” If time allows Peggy will also offer a comical adventure about moving from the Boston areato Western Massachusetts - “Lost in Chicopee.”
