low key affair.
let your hair down.
put on some blue jeans.
grab a twenty-spot.
meet me out.

long weeks.
short weekends.
spend your time wisely.
catch up with friends.
sit back and relax.

the word is maloney's.
spread the word.

Taste 2002 was filled with tables and tables of food from talented chefs, bottles upon bottles of different California wines, and throngs of well dressed people ready to strut and saunter, laugh and coo at just the right times. I kept waiting for Jay Gatsby to come strolling along. A very nice affair and the after party at the Wrigley Mansion wasn't too shabby either.

Special thanks to Seth Hollow Horn Bear for the tickets and to Mr. Jeff Stanton for three VIP passes plus the ingenuity to find a fourth. Jonas, Cristy, Aaron and I all had a wonderful time.
