Pastis and Cute Dogs

Back again to Pastis, this time on the patio on a warm New York day, with Add Studd Designer, Marc Lohan.

Brooke and Felicia communed their J12s....(much to Han's amusement earlier...)

They watched the street scene, always bustling...

They saw shaggy dogs...

...walked by their owners...

And adorable cocker spaniels, held by little girls. (Is that Tamara Mellon, of Jimmy Choo fame, behind the young girl?)

She proudly shows off her spotted-white-pawed puppy...and Dolce is jealous!
Till tomorrow,
Love, Maia

Bull Market at the Birthday Party

First person on the bull was Felicia.

She lasted precisely until the men who operated the bull wanted her off. Which was approximately 8 seconds.

The next rider was India.

She lasted 9 seconds.

Mrs. Goodson lasted 10.

Brooke and India together lasted 3 seconds.

But they had the most fun of all.

Birthday Cake

Birthday cake was served.

Mrs. Goodson offered me a piece.

Then she fed Wild Running Eagle.

Paula's famous Red Velvet cupcakes were also available.

And then it was time to leave.

We made our way to City Hall.

And said goodbye to the lovely flowers.
Till tomorrow,
Love, Maia

Cowboys 'n Injuns III

The chefs kept busy making cowboy fixin's...

...for the vast crowd.

India said howdy to Sandra...

...there with Peter, the husband she lassoed in college...

While Paula's professional photog refreshed her drink...

And the rest of us caught up with Maria, and told her of our adventure in Cabo, with Alejandro Fernandez...
Till tomorrow,
Love, Maia
