While my friend Michele is in the midst of labor, I thought I'd reminisce about her swanky baby shower that took place last month. It was one of the most hip baby showers that I'd ever attended. The shower was held at a stylish abode in Ardsley Park owned by two gay men with the same moniker (so Savannah). The fireplace was crackling away, even though it was warm enough to keep the french doors wide open. Talk about decadent. Let me set the scene: balloons as far as the eye could see, a cowboy hat piñata filled to the brim with candy and airplane alcohol, drinking games out of baby bottles, a cookie cake AND an ice cream cake, a man in Versace circa Gianni, gifts galore, and an over the moon Mama to be. The signature cocktail was the margarita and the cuisine was Cuban. There were plantains and pork aplenty. The well stocked bar kept everyone content, not matter what your drink of choice. Wish you were there?
