Fright night at MaryKay’s
Female heads of missions in the Philippines break down formal barriers.
Reader, beware. You’re in for a scare.
An unseasonably hot night felt chilly at the US ambassador’s Forbes Park home last weekend.
Oh! How it has been the talk of the realm: The Halloween party by MaryKay Carlson, who has always been an impeccable host.
An animal spirit that could carry an eerie tune.
A table centerpiece in the hauntingly decorated venue.
Skeletons captivated both children and adults with their intricate details.
Some came in ermine gowns, others in seemingly coordinated outfits.
The guests arrived in total awe, as always, of MaryKay’s usual flair, and how she was able to pull off one of her favorite holidays.
The dust-covered cobblestone structures were as lantern-lit as moonlit, and flickered with ghostly imprints.
Eerie tunes mingled with the occasional howl of the wind, evoking a pang of unease and foreboding.
A feast for both the eyes and the palate: From popular treats to themed charcuterie boards.
