As it happens, Abbey Carpet &
Floor threw a better Oscar party this year than Vanity Fair.
Who would have predicted that? The magazine canceled its soiree out of concern
that the Hollywood writer’s strike could mean sad faces and uneaten hors
d'oeuvres. Abbey, which was in Southern California celebrating its 50th
Anniversary, threw a lavish bash using the Academy Awards as a theme. It was two-days before the actual Academy
Awards (and 60 miles away), but a very memorable night. They even had souvenir
Oscar statues to go along with great food and outstanding entertainment. Thank
you, Abbey! Thank you so very much.
