This week was jam packed both at work and outside the office. Tuesday I went with my friend Josie to a movie premiere at the Paley Center for Media. "My Boy Jack" (which will premiere on PBS, Sunday) is the story of Rudyard Kippling and his family during WWI. It was very moving. Kim Catrall plays Carrie Kippling and spoke as part of the panel after the film. Mario Cantone (Anthony from Sex and the City) and Stephen Sondheim were also in the audience.
Josie and I then had dinner at Fig and Olive. It was only the second day that the Midtown East location was open. They serve Mediterranean tapas and have a variety of Olive Oils from France, Italy, and Spain.
Wednesday my friend Sarah and I volunteered with Transportation Alternatives. We met some new people and helped send out mailings about Biking events throughout the Boroughs this May.
Thursday my friend Melissa and I went to see Xanadu. Out supervisor gave us tickets she couldn't use. We had dinner at my favorite place, Bar Centrale. The show was actually really cute and we had a great time. It is much better then the movie (which isn't hard...if you have seen the movie, you know what I am talking about).
I spent this weekend in Philadelphia. Saturday was the first night of passover. Michael's mother invited me to join them for the first Seder. It was wonderful getting to meet more of Michael and Sandy's family. The dinner was wonderful. Almost everyone brought a dish. Sandy, Terry, and I traveled from Brooklyn with fish, farfel, and haroset. Esther made amazing deserts including a mango cake and apricot mouse. It was a very nice evening and we all left stuffed.
