Spring in New York...

**I'm actually so bad at this, that this is from 2012.  And I just posted it now.  Awesome.  The post below is mega out of date.**

I'm a shitty blogger--I know this.  I only update when exciting things occur and I'm travelling somewhere interesting.  Since that only happens once per year, my little blog looks so sad.  I do try to keep on top of little trips, but they never seem to make the cut.

Hopefully I will have something new to report soon.

I did just take a quick birthday-weekend trip to NYC and saw some incredible shows.  Death of a Salesman with Philip Seymour Hoffman was one of the best pieces of theatre I've ever seen--definitely go if you have the chance.  Also caught The Best Man, starring John Laroquette, Candice Bergen, James Earl Jones, Angela Lansbury and Eric MacCormack.  It was solid and more light and fun, but Salesman is the thing to see on Broadway right now.  GO.

I also had the chance for a reunion with my bestie Sam, of Bridges of Madison Avenue fame (yes, FAME).  When Harpers BAZAAR sends you an incredible Missoni Home throw, you're famous.  In Canada, anyway.
