Mika Brzezinski: She's smart, sassy and funny. And she's coming to Saratoga Springs on Jan. 29 as the speaker for the 2010 Cabin Fever Luncheon fund-raiser hosted by Soroptimist International of Saratoga County.
Honestly, I can't wait. I'd be going even if I weren't a Soroptimist (which is almost as hard to spell as Brzezinski).
My husband turned me on to Mika, as he is a longtime fan of the lively "Morning Joe" show that she co-hosts with Joe Scarborough. She's the daughter of former National Security Advisor Zbigniew Brzezinski, a graduate of Williams College, and an experienced journalist.
Proceeds from the event are used by Soroptimist for projects and programs that benefit the lives of women and girls, such as Domestic Violence and Rape Crisis Services of Saratoga County's Project Hope and Power.
While the traditional Cabin Fever Luncheon audiences have been mostly women, I think men should enjoy hearing her in person, too. Hope to see you there on the 29th! Check out SoroptimistSaratoga.org for details.
