I’m a Christmas bitch. I love Christmas; I love decorations; I love a fireplace; I love food. So that’s really — if I’m somewhere cold and it’s Christmastime, I’m doing soup. I sound like I’m 97 years old. I’m deep into it. Chicken soup, tortellini soup. I love tortilla soup, Italian-wedding soup, minestrone, lasagna soup — anything. It’s something to look forward to when it’s cold. I love soup and humidifiers; that’s my thing. I like it steamy in the house but only during the winter.
I was over there to get my nails done at a place right next door. I go there every time I get my nails done. I feel like getting your nails done is so boring. I just sit there thinking about food the whole time, and that’s why I end up finding spots next to my nail places. I come out ravenous.

For dinner, I had the lentil soup at Olive Tree Cafe. I think it was, like, midnight or some shit. The Olive Tree is the restaurant attached to the Comedy Cellar, and I had shows there. Comedians get a discount at that restaurant, so we all eat there. Even when we don’t have shows, we all show up. The lentil soup is what I get if I’m eating after midnight. I mean, all the food there is good, which is what makes it distinct from a lot of comedy clubs.
