Ladies Who Brunch

Can we get an “amen”? Unless you have kids or are so religious that the idea of the resurrection of your lord and savior gives you crazy spiritual orgasms, Easter is a pretty lame holiday. OK, the Cadbury eggs and marshmallow Peeps are pretty cool. But when you wake up...

Can we get an “amen”? Unless you have kids or are so religious that the idea of the resurrection of your lord and savior gives you crazy spiritual orgasms, Easter is a pretty lame holiday. OK, the Cadbury eggs and marshmallow Peeps are pretty cool. But when you wake up Monday with a sugar headache and a few new cavities, you won’t exactly be singing Jesus’ praises. Our advice: Skip the sweets and head to Lips for a very special Easter edition of its weekly Sunday Gospel Brunch. Between courses of honey-glazed ham and coconut layer cake, the divas onstage will strip down in a very church-inappropriate manner — and we mean that as a compliment. Don’t forget to wear your most fabulous Easter hat; the best ones will be called down to “testify” for a chance at special prizes. (The prizes are a secret, but we’re willing to be they’re a lot more fun than a shot of cheap wine and a stale wafer.)
