GARDEN PARTY

Lovely day yesterday at the Robinson Garden Tour in Beverly Hills. My niece gave my sister tickets for Christmas and lucky me was invited to join her. Beautiful gardens, fantastic flower arrangements and tasty luncheon made for a wonderful day. Many of the florists used peonies in their arrangements and while photos were not permitted, I had to sneak one of the lovely peony and dogwood arrangement in the bathroom and also of the bathtub full of maidenhair fens. The bathroom at our Brand Library is an exact copy as both of the home were designed by the same architect.

TWO BIRTHDAYS

Today would have been Martha Graham's 117 birthday. It is also my sister's ..... birthday. You can still catch this bit of animation on Google Search that was done to mark the day.

I was lucky enough as an undergrad student at San Diego State to see her perform with her company. It was one of the all-time best performances ever and she is still one of my heroes.
