Best property...25 acres of the most beautiful hidden oasis. On the delux golf cart winding up the driveway, you knew it was going to be a special night. Best house...the outside looks like it's been there for one hundred years, and once inside you think...Oh, so chic. You try not to stare at the family portaits on the walls but can't help your self because everyone is gorgous. Best crowd....you enter the back room and the electricity is immediate. Everyone is made to feel special by the two of you and really special when you realize you are standing between The Boss and Bon Jovi. Then 6'6" Howard Stem is bending over like a giraffe and saying to the top of the Mayor's 5'6" head, "I talk about you all the time" and the Mayor is thanking him. A total New York moment. I am now thinking....do not attack every celeb before dinner, the hosts are watching you. Best dinner....the tent was devine. Of course you had heaters. The seating was perfect. I got to my table and thought, Oh my God, Howard Stem! What am I going to say to him? I have never listened to his show. Thankfully that problem never arose because Howard must have sneaked into the tent during cocktails and realized he got a weak seat and left...but I have known Angelica Huston for 25 years and she told us all about working with Michael Jackson on a film ca
