Anybody know why Nancy Pelosi was in Houston this past weekend? |

link: http://www.chron.com/cs/CDA/ssistory.mpl/features/3275194 Heavenly bounty: Sunday brunch With Sunday's inaugural services at Lakewood Church in its new location at the former Compaq Center, next-door neighbor Tony Vallone had an inaugural of his own: Sunday brunch. And the house was packed.
Tony's has hosted numerous private brunches through the years, but this was the first public Sunday opening. And in they came, led by Lakewood impresario Joel Osteen and his wife, Victoria, and their party of more than 100.
It wasn't all Lakewood church goers who assembled. Also communing at the high altar of social feeding were California Sen. Nancy Pelosi and family, City Council members Mark Goldberg and Michael Berry, Port Commissioner Janiece Longoria, Jeri and Marc Shapiro, Martha Turner and Glenn Bauguss, Shara Fryer and Barry Silverman, Suzy and Alvin Zimmerman, and on and on.
By the time the last Croque Madame (the lobster dish served on Tuscan bread with poached egg) was served, the restaurant had entertained more than 400, with service spilling over into the bar.

1. Pelosi isn't a Senator |
|
and I imagine that if she didn't come to Lakewood's grand opening, then it must have been for the Croque Madam. :shrug:

2. Minority Leader Pelosi has a daughter and grand kid in Houston |
|
That might be a reason for her to be here.
