Tuesday night was unseasonably cold outside but nice and toasty at the Tribeca Grand where we attended a fabulous -and fabulously friendly in a way that seems unique to New York City- party for Yoko Deveraux and the genius behind it, Andy Salzer. Sadly, my "little black book" went missing so I don't have all the info on everyone...yet. Our friend Jose found it and we'll be hooking up with him soon and updating our info. Be sure to check out our My Space page for even more photos!
