last monday i was sitting here watching snow fall to the tune of six inches...today: 70°!
it was a long, cold week that ended in a brilliant weekend here in washington, d.c. friday night we road metro to union station and attended the dc independent film festival for the opening of borf! followed by drinks and indian food outdoors at the white tiger on capitol hill. saturday i had to take oto on a long walk and short swim because it was so nice and warm out. i headed to visarts in rockville to view a kawasaki motorcycle that is the subject of an art competition to benefit the art center. i dont know if i am going to be able to come up with anything interesting for the proposal, but i do have a few concepts i am going to sketch out. (i will keep you posted!) we decided to head to the eastern market to buy up as much fresh raviolis as we could carry home. i think we got eight different flavors. i freeze them and use them for quick meals during the week. kind of awesome. before we headed home, we grabbed burgers, fries and mini toasted marshmallow shakes from good stuff eatery, owned and operated by top chef's chef spike. he happened to be there, working the grill! during a break he stopped and talked to us for a while, then took pictures with thrilled tourists and locals alike. spike was very hospitable and cool. i chilled at home saturday night so i could work in my front yard sunday, trying to regain a little curb appeal! too tired to cook dinner after laying down fifteen bags of mulch, we grabbed amazing carry out pizzas from comet ping pong. i completed random paperwork and required reading about 3a.m., and...here we are at monday again! i have the week planned out and hope to get a lot accomplished in my studio, my home, my garden, my life, my cyberspace. good luck!
