AAU with NRM in NYC

The Academy of Art University umbrella shielded us from the storm in Manhattan. Chuck was invited by the Norman Rockwell Museum to help launch the traveling exhibition of Rockwell's "The Four Freedoms." Get ready to see what was worth fighting to preserve. And still is.

Did it!!!

Saw some dear friends at Petaluma Market and spontaneously invited them to dinner. With 15 minutes lead time, I was able to pull a rabbit out of the hat thanks to a now well-stocked pantry and "BB" (Baumhefner Basics). Our guests picked Chuck up at the bus stop.
I did a "yellow fish/green fish" paper-package-to-plate miracle in 20 minutes thanks to my friend Nancy Niver. The rest was all about FLOATING through the kitchen and being present to a workday evening. Great ending to an otherwise kwaaazy day.

Oscar Night

The Red Carpwt was such a thrill! Lauren was busy escorting all the stars to the Dolby Theater, but took time out to make sure Ben and I were treated like celebs. The end of the awards ceremony will surely hi down in Oscar history. He is gold, people are only human.
