My weekend
Apr. 30th, 2006 07:54 pmI spent most of yesterday doing laundry and figuring out what to take to New Orleans. But in the evening I went to the WomanMade Gallery benefit art auction. I generally volunteer, and this year I was a 'spotter' for the live auction. I also bid on a few items in the silent auction, but despite my best efforts I did not win the jewelry, the ceramic vase, or the vintage evening bag. I did, however, win the books. Surprise!
To Caroline's today for dinner. She made a very yummy pot roast, and I brought a "Mango Passion Exotique" from Trader Joe's. We were treated to a recorder concert (well, two songs) by Jennie Len. She is supposed to play for her class and so she practiced on us.
Marissa did something that really shocked me. I keep the cat toys in a basket in the dining room, and normal procedure is for the cats to take out the ones they want to play with, bat them all over the house and leave them for me to pick up. Today, Marissa got out a sparkly toy, hauled it into my study, fought with it for a while, and then (you might want to sit down for this) put it back in the basket!!!!!
