So I went to see a play the other day. For those that aren’t familiar, a play is like a musical, but for some reason they take out the singing and dancing (it’s still not clear to me why anyone would want to do that). Anyway, I liked it…a lot actually…but I didn’t love it. Really the only thing keeping me from loving it was: audience participation. I just am not a fan of audience participation. Even when I personally don’t have to participate. It’s like, I paid money to see this thing, and half the time I had to watch a bunch of awkward amateurs? I would like a partial refund, please. Plus I just felt stressed thinking about how nervous other people felt when they had to participate. (They did try to hand me a card beforehand with a line I was supposed to say, but I said NOPE. I shall not perform unless I get to join a union first, thankyouverymuch.)

Sweater + boots season is in full swing over here. Sweater + boots can get boring if you don’t switch it up sometimes with an unexpected shape or color, and that’s how a chartreuse oversized knit came into my life.

This time of year can be brutal, but I’m focusing on the light at the end of the tunnel – and by “light” I mean wine, because in a few weeks we head to Napa! I may still be wearing sweater + boots there, but it’s likely to be merely chilly instead of frigid, and chilly isn’t bad when you’re gazing at vineyards and mountains, vino in hand. 🙂

Anyone been to the Napa Valley and have a favorite spot? Please share! We’ll also be in San Francisco for a couple days and would welcome food recommendations.

Stay toasty out there, friends.
