NIGHTLIGHT: Star Vodka Sponsors A Night Out Benefiting Safe Horizon in Support of Domestic Violence Awareness Month! And Peachy Deegan Discovers Once Again it's not who you know, it's Whom You Know
Last night, two universal truths were acknowledged.
1. Star Vodka is the best vodka that is
(we have known this since August 2009. That's the Star Vodka team above)
2. Farmington rules the world
(as in Miss Porter's School; we have known this since birth)
Whom You Know was started on the premise that Peachy Deegan has been told she is an excellent networker, and pretty good writer.
Whom You Know as you know is named after her 10th grade English class at Miss Porter's, and Mr. McQuilkin has even become a Mover and Shaker:
So, at Miss Porter's she learned to write and at Boston College she learned Ever to Excel, so we write about excellence which is how we found Star Vodka because it is the best vodka in existence. We would have never learned that in Farmington, so we moved to Manhattan.
The best vodka in existence brought us full circle last night because someone tapped Peachy Deegan on the shoulder and said: "Is that a Farmington ring you're wearing?"
Of course it was because Peachy has worn it every day since she earned enough brownie points to get it, and she was pleased to see Upcoming Mover and Shaker and CEO of Safe Horizon, Ariel Zwang at the event last night! Ariel is MPS '81 and a Trustee and Peachy even had lunch with her a few years ago at school when she was on the Alumnae board.
