Last night, we hosted our "Hats Off!" party, to celebrate the DVD release of the critically acclaimed documentary about our favorite 93-year old "life muse", Mimi Weddell.  With our sponsor and cohost (and director of the film) Jyll Johnstone of Canobie Films, and our other cohost, the gracious Abigail Lorick, Ari Cohen and Rachelle Hruska (in Keith Lissner who was also present) welcomed guests to the historic Algonquin Hotel for cocktails, and chance to see the film and meet Mimi herself.  Guests who came to gaze upon the wonder that is Mimi (I'm not kidding, look at the pictures!
