The Famous Lavender Cookout





The lavender cookout has become a Haystack tradition. Normally held on the Tuesday night of Haystack week, Jim Holloway started this tradition several years ago. It is so popular that others have crashed the party. In 1999, the party was no longer restricted to the "festive" set, yet to this day has a very exclusive (yet ever-expanding) list of invitees!

Partiers gathered 'round the dining room table at 1860 Pacific Avenue.


What a spread we had! Notice the ambrosia (Nick Kyrus outlined Haystack Rock in raisins on top)!


John Hartman, Georgia (Carol's partner), Carol Rich (accompanist extraordinaire), and Catherine Robinson.

Now, who moved the braid??? (A little bird told me it was Nick Kyrus....)
