Woohoo! I was so thrilled and honored to have an invite to the party for the 500th episode of The Simpsons at the Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood. Naturally, there were a ton of desserts, including… Dooonuts.
The cake donuts were ok, but what tickled me more was this tray of lovely options.
Which up close, each dessert (minus the cake pops) looked like this:
The S’mores Bar was insanely delicious, sweet, and buttery. Hands down, it was the winner. That said, the unassuming Chocolate Torte bar there had a surprising layer of peanut butter inside that made me giddy.
And see that head honcho in the tall director’s chair?
Yep- that’s just my buddy Matt Groening hanging with my friend and me. We go waaaaaay back (to 40 secs before this photo was taken).
Of course, my night wouldn’t be complete without dancing with the Simpsons themselves!
DOH! I ate too many desserts that night. Like, at least two of everything (mediocre donuts included). Awe well, it was an awesome night and well worth it. CONGRATS to everyone at FOX and The Simpsons for such tremendous success throughout the years! I remember when my family gathered around the TV for the very first episode together. It was an event for us that I’ll never forget!
Soo cool that you got to go!!!
You touched Matt ??
What a fun event!
