Too much to say in this post...but the executive summary is that On Golden Pond is open, it's going well and I would be starting to have my life back...if I weren't finalizing an enormous appellate brief that's due on Friday. More on all of that later.

I received my monthly Foodie Penpal box at just the right time, before I went into technical rehearsals. The lovely Gigi from San Antonio sent me a sampler of dried fruits, candy and other treats, all packaged into little parcels that I threw into my bag and ate during the last week of rehearsals. Who knew wasabi sunflower seeds were so good? And that candy corn, something I have historically not liked, tasted good when flavored with blackberries?
It was an embarrassment of riches that arrived at exactly the right time. Thanks, Gigi, for such a fabulous box!
In other news, David and I came out of the opening night of On Golden Pond to find the first snow of the year falling. It didn't last past Saturday morning, but it's a sign that winter is on its way in Alaska.
Also, this week marked the end of the Jewish high holidays, so a belated l'shanah tovah to all those who observed them.
Back soon with the promised Vegas restaurant reviews and the first post-show meals! But first, the accursed, appellate brief...
welcome back and good luck for the opening! xx

I go through some serious ebbs and flows with my blogging and it gives me so much anxiety when I don't write for awhile. But, life happens. I tell myself that more and more so I don't obsess during my "ebbs". Great to have you back and great job on Golden Pond!
ReplyDeleteWe had our first snow in Montana last week too and it surely feels like winter is on its way! Hope all is well!
First snow of the season- lovely!
