Every now and again people comment on how charmed my life is. I was reminded of that very fact, and just how lucky I am to live here, while at The Beach House at Purdy’s first-ever Beach Party. I’m gonna tell you all about it, my sultry readers, because if you miss the next one, you’re in BIG trouble with me, and the last girl you want to mess with is Natasha. Pow. Upon arrival, I was greeted on the deck with a welcoming hug from the dreamy Mr. Steve Naccarato. He’s one of the proprietors along with his brother, Gordon, an amazing person and chef. Both ooze sophistication and charm, and (along with so many other people in the South Sound) I have fancy dreams about their food whenever I’m away. This $18.50 beach party scored you great music, two drinks (like glasses of wine, margaritas, cosmopolitans, lemon drops or domestic beers), and tasty appetizers including delicious pineapple and watermelon, chips and salsa, salmon kabobs, chicken wings and two of the best brownies I’ve ever had. I couldn’t wait to dig my little red toenails into the sparkly sand while enjoying the sunshine in the beach furniture casually spread throughout the length of the deck. The Beach House sits on an unobstructed view of the gorgeous Carr Inlet. Candles and tiki torches lined the bulkhead, and nearly every attendee at one point, or on several occasions, said “This is AWESOME.” The crowd consisted of beautiful people in fancy sunglasses, straw hats, tasteful Hawaiian shirts and flowing dresses and skirts that looked like they came straight from Lahaina. You know you’re with a fun group of people when a congo line instinctively forms during, “Hot, Hot, Hot,” or maybe it was more like a Carnival Cruise commercial in action. And that was just the beginning. As soon as the sun went down the dancing went until, well, late, and there’s no doubt in my mind that everyone had a wonderful time. Some say the Beach House is too out of the way, but I think the trip is completely worth it. None of Tacoma’s waterfront restaurants get the kind of sun exposure, service or comfort that you get at the Beach House.  Just go, already. Mr. Naccarato said he’s considering making the beach party a fairly regular event. Watch their Web site for more information, or better yet, read this blog, and I’ll update you here on when you can catch the next one. This column was originally intended to give you lovely readers information on the Pacific Grill (another Naccarato creation), too, but I had so much to say about beach party that the PG will have to wait until next week. Stay tuned. â€" thecrime@hotmail.com">Natasha
