By spending way too much money at Party City, actually.
That aside, last night's Mardi Gras festivities were a huge success. I made a cameo at Memory Lane, Soho and a bunch of the bars included in the Two for Fat Tuesday Block Party. I'll have a bunch of stories as the day progresses, including a firsthand account of the culinary greatness that constituted the jambalaya at Soho Bar & Grill.
Hint: I'm still alive.
