Many great holiday parties in now right now. Last Thursday night over at '21' Jay McInerney and his wife Anne Hearst and George Farias threw a cocktail reception for ALL of their friends. There must have been hundreds. It was a large but nevertheless cozy affair; everyone seemed to be in the spirit of this time and very glad to be there and to see everyone else.
