This is my first attempt at blogging, so I thought I would write something funny and cute. After this past weekend, it’s difficult to be glib. I feel so fortunate that Irene’s bark was much worse that her bite. Now is the time to clean up, brush ourselves off and be thankful.
It’s hard to believe that in the midst of a Hurricane Irene, my crew forged ahead and was able to complete all the orders in house without a hitch. The fear of Irene’s wrath and the prospect of no electricity were so overwhelming. It did require working through the night. This only goes to confirm my belief, that you are only as good as the great people who surround you. I will always be indebted to them all.

Now to the subject at hand. It is hard to comprehend that it has been 10 years since the demise of the Twin Towers. It saddens me the think about all those lives lost but I am pleased to be a part of the upcoming National 9/11 Memorial and Museum Benefit Dinner. Hopefully I will have some spectacular photos to share with all of you after the event. I do hope that this benefit is a success and enough funds are raised to continue the memories of all our loved ones lost on that horrific day.

On to a brighter note, with Fashion Week quickly approaching, I look forward to all the new designs which drives the trends in table décor. Color, texture, fabric ..oh my..can’t wait to see the new inspirations.
