EVERY YEAR, WE GET PRETTY STUCK INTO THE HIGH HOLIDAYS, AND GATHER AN EXPAT CREW ROUND OUR TABLE FOR A FOOD FEST. PAST THEMES HAVE INCLUDED 'COWBOYS AND INDIANS', 'COME AS YOUR FAVOURITE PILGRIM' AND 'THE MOVEABLE FEAST'
THIS WAS LAST YEAR:
THIS YEAR, WE WENT TO HEAVEN:
SO ANTOINETTE CALLED US ON THANKSGIVING DAY AND SAID
"FORGET THE TURKEY LADY, LET'S COOK THIS CHICKEN WITH
THE DANDY WARHOLS AND GO TO HEAVEN"
APPARENTLY THE WORLD'S MOST FAMOUS GAY NIGHTCLUB AND HAUNT OF BOY GEORGE (WE CAN SEE OUR MOTHER BEAMING WITH PRIDE AT OUR CHOICE OF THANKSGIVING VENUE).
HOW DO WE REFUSE OUR SOMETIMES GIRLFRIEND AND MOSTLY MUSE? WE DON'T. SO WE GOT DRESSED, AND TRADED OUR PILGRIM SHOES FOR OUR PARTY HAT.
THE ALIX OF BOHEMIA CHOMEL BLOUSE IN BLANC DE INDIA,
WITH REQUISITE GROUPIE WEAR:
THE BATHROOM ATTENDANT WAS A PEACH; SHE COMPLIMENTED US ON OUR BOHO BLOUSE, AND THEN KINDLY OFFERED US SOME MINTS AND A SPRITZ OF SOME VERY FANCY PERFUME.
AND THEN WE DANCED.
IT WASN'T OUR TYPICAL HARVEST CELEBRATION SCENE, BUT SOMETIMES ITS GOOD TO BREAK WITH TRADITION.
THIS YEAR HAS BEEN A YEAR OF REGRESSION, AND REALLY, WHY STOP NOW?
THE DANDY WARHOLS DOING THEIR THING.
AND THERE WAS A PROPOSAL ONSTAGE, AND THE GIRL SAID 'YES' WHICH MUST BE A VERY GOOD THANKSGIVING OMEN INDEED.
OUR HOST, OLLI OF BERLIN CLUB AUCHT MILLIMETER AND ANTOINETTE.
(MERCI OLLI)
OH DANDYS, DID YOU KNOW WE WERE COMING?
YOU PLAYED OUR ANTHEM:
YOU CAN'T DUPLICATE OUR EVENING, BUT YOU CAN BUY A BLOUSE JUST LIKE OURS (WHICH IS BETTER, BECAUSE YOU WON'T RUN THE RISK OF BEING THROWN INTO A MIDDLE-AGED MOSH PIT)
TO GET YOUR OWN ALIX OF BOHEMIA CHOMEL BLOUSE- GO HERE.
