7th
…it’s back to tranquil domesticity here at the old clam shack. My roommates had never really heard of Tumblr and were a tad skeptical, “There’s gonna be a party for bloggers here Saturday?” I knew from the last Meetup at Fat Cat that it was going to be a fantastic crowd, some friends of ours and some fascinating new people. And what a smash! We all had a damned fine time.
5-course Dinners / 5-hour Parties are difficult to pull off; it could not have happened without the help of Nora, Eric, Kevin, Nick Gray, Lee, and everyone else who brought charm, wit, sophistication and revelry times triplicate to the W&L.
Bartender Nick made somewhere between 260-280 cocktails from 8pm to 3am. 22 bottles of wine (the dinner crowd had most of those), 16 liters of beer, and one bottle of Colombian firewater that showed up at 1am and damned-near obliterated me. But who’s counting, really?
Cheers to a great crowd and some brilliant new friends.
