Clean and Fabulous Miss Sobriety Pageant

I had a fabulous time at the Miss Sobriety 2012 Pageant on January 28th at the Lab School in Chelsea of Manhattan. We loved showing everyone that you don't have to be under the influence to have a blast - but it really helps if you are fabulous. Our glamor and fierceness and fun attitudes were most intoxicating. I was so glad to be of service and to show newly sober people who were counting days laugh and to show them that you don't need drugs and alcohol to really enjoy yourself and have a fantastic time!

SoHo Holiday Art Gallery Celebrating

I had a wonderful time celebrating the Holidays at one of the most prestigious high-end Visual Art Galleries in the SoHo fine art district in New York City, the William Bennett Gallery on Prince Street in Manhattan. I met so many wonderful friends and colleges in the Art world and we enjoyed cranberry martinis, cocoa and sparkling Italian water with yuletide pastries and desserts. There was even a fantastic live jazz band! We decked the halls among original works of the most famous modern artists like Salvatore Dali, Andy Warhol, Pablo Picasso, Joan Miro and many others.
