Regardless, it was a great night spent with a dear friend and co-worker.   As for the Young Partners of the Boston Ballet event,  well I have pictures for that event and will upload as soon as I complete file transfers.  I'll also be appearing in an issues of the "Improper Bostonian" for that particular event.  A year in and i'm already developing connections!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Upcoming events include Apple Picking, a long overdue visit from my younger sister and cooking classes at the Cambridge Culinary Institute.  I'll have to invest in a new camera so that I can share those events with you!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3386653678145362597-2543030539542789234?l=namordai.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://namordai.blogspot.com/feeds/2543030539542789234/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3386653678145362597&amp;postID=2543030539542789234' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3386653678145362597/posts/default/2543030539542789234'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3386653678145362597/posts/default/2543030539542789234'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://namordai.blogspot.com/2008/09/and-so-fall-begins.html' title=''/><author><name>IAR</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08454808360807859723</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_FZk7aSKtsrg/SN6BCi7s3oI/AAAAAAAAABY/sMdjyIVVfwU/s72-c/DSCN1116.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3386653678145362597.post-7968853829078444958</id><published>2008-09-14T11:45:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-14T12:47:29.730-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Boston Fashion Week</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_FZk7aSKtsrg/SM1m1Ppmg-I/AAAAAAAAABA/6DjOm8x3kEQ/s1600-h/liberty01.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 193px; height: 176px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_FZk7aSKtsrg/SM1m1Ppmg-I/AAAAAAAAABA/6DjOm8x3kEQ/s320/liberty01.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5245962205876618210" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;Featuring Designer Sam Mendoz&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;a at the Liberty Hotel.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(153, 153, 153);"&gt;Formerly known as the Charles Street Jail and completed in 1851. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(153, 153, 153);font-size:85%;" &gt;The original building, a collaborative effort by architect Gridley James Fox Bryant, widely considered Boston’s most accomplished architect of the time, and Rev.
