The Watts' and Higgins' met, en mass, for the first time. Mother Higgins has met Mother and Father Watts before, but this was Father Higgins' maiden voyage. We went to Chumley's, rumored to be NYC's original speakeasy. Apparently the term '86-it' comes from Chumley's as the phrase was code for 'get the hell out, here come the smokies'. The back door of Chumley's is 86 Bedford St. and still hosts several secret passaways. Down the block, we stopped for the meanest peach cobbler and Banana Cream Yumminess at the Pink Teacup. It was a very nice evening, even if Matt had to sit between our two mothers and listen to lady chat.
