Post-Game Party Report - December(ish) Edition
It's been like a million years -- or about six weeks -- since I did a post-game party recap, so here are some social highlights since my last report...
The Young New Yorkers for the Philharmonic had their annual winter benefit with cocktails at Armani Ristorante - its interior is so sleek and spaceship-esque:
And dinner was held at Doubles in the Sherry Netherland - with Mark Gilbertson, Chappy, and the champagne flute I'm unsuccessfully trying to hide out of the frame:
Those photos were taken by Linsley Lindekens for the NY Phil.
Two musicians, Michelle Kim & Joo Oh, played Bériot's Duo Concertante during dinner. World class musical performance, friends, and a kickin' new Kate Spade frock for the party -- what could be better than that?
A snap of me with my fellow Phil-loving girlfriends Barbara Regna and Valerie Lettan ended up in the Sunday Styles section of the NY Times:

I especially love parties where doggies are invited...
The ASPCA had their Young Friends benefit, Paw Prints, at the IAC building downtown. ASPCA staff members bring dogs that are adoptable to mix and mingle with the crowd during cocktails. Here I am with a sweet little Chihuahua. Awwww:
As a proud member of the New York Committee of the American Humane Association, I happily attended their event where Sadie, a search and rescue dog demonstrated her considerable skills in finding explosives(!). Sadie is talented and adorable:

And last but not least, I went to the The Horticultural Society of New York's Annual Fall Luncheon which was held in a glorious wood-paneled dining room of the Metropolitan Club. Here I am with my buddy Alison Minton:

The Hort's mission is "to sustain the vital connection between people and plants". As a veteran of my high school's Horticulture Club (yeah, I was a plant geek) and an amateur gardener up in CT, I'm proud to be associated with this organization.
I'm forever going to museums, so I won't bore you with a laundry list of things I've done/seen, but I would highly recommend these two exhibits...
Maurizio Cattelan at the Guggenheim:
Just wow. Just go see it.
And Carsten Höller at the New Museum:
I went down that 3 story slide. Twice.
I'm looking forward to lots more fun in '12...
