2026 begins
Just some adventures and souvenirs to start the year: I took a ferry ride with James & L.B. to Fisherman’s Wharf, but crab season was delayed so we had prawns from who-knows-where, then coffee, then cocktails. Another thrifting trip to Santa Rosa netted a cat carrier from Italy for Art’s birthday. The unofficial flower of Berkeley, the ubiquitous FREE box.
For helping LB with her garage clean-out I won an Italian puzzle lamp shade I put together and took apart. STILL these freaking signs show up on the street by a school nearby. My nighttime comfort, Alliger, and a pillowcase I got from Barbara.
A sequined skirt Vikki gave me that needed almost every thread end knotted and tucked. I ordered a package of sequins to replace the ones that I could tell had recently come apart–the chain stitch threads still hanging on. And finally, another trip to Petaluma where Westy met a friend. I’m unsure what convenient update has made it impossible to caption photographs, so, oh, well. ‘Tis the future.
