Lucy and Cators Autumnal Fling

Why did this take so long?
How did this happen?
After three years of living next door to each other and after having a combined total of more than 30 parties there has never been a double townhouse fete.
I mean, of course there have been many a night when Lucy’s has a party and I take a group over to mine for dancing or more booze but never have we had a proper mingle until now.

I believe it was in August when Lucy and I decided upon the date of our event. Both of us have dizzying calendars so we always make dates well in advance.

The event would be fun and swank and had to have some surprises. Hey lets hire a piano player! I call my friend Steven Lynch who is coming out with his own album and he is more than happy tickle the ivories for the event. Done!

Booze? I just happened to do a favor for a friend at Mirror Ball marketing and when he asked how he could ever thank me? Oh you can sponsor my party! Pernod and Amstel Light plus Bartender. Done!

Food? Justin's darling friend owns an empanada joint and owed him a favor. Pork, Veggie, Apple empanadas Done!
Dessert? As Lucy and I are shopping for party supplies in Harlem we come across a food market where we find amazing mini pies. Created by Debbie's Soulful Sweets, Debbie is there to give a card and take an order. 50 mini pies please Debbie. Done!

Now we were ready so our houses were scrubbed, candles lit and mood music turned up. We never counted but we had around 80 people. If I only had GPS on my guests. At one point my house was packed to the rafters, then people would file over to Lucy's and to booze and swivel and then back to mine. We closed shop around 4am, both houses trashed and full of fun memories.

Thanks for everyone who made the trek up and with the amount of Pernod we have left over, guess what you all are getting for Christmas?
