October is ending on a stormy note in New England. Remember the freak snow storm last year? Well, it's a hurricane this time. However, fashion and food have an infinite draw making aficionados brave city traffic on week nights or block off their precious saturday evenings to mingle and feast. We had two every successful events in October.
The show at the Blue Glass Cafe in Boston and the Fashion Revue-300 years of Lexington costume history in Lexington. Included are some pictures of the events. October also saw the descent of the Hindu mother goddess Durga (ten handed, riding a Bengal tiger) to earth to slay the demons that plague us mortals. She has been victorious and has returned to her mountainous home in the Himalayas with her Lord Shiva. Hindus in India celebrate this festival every year with great joy, food, music, drama and new clothing.
