weekend

[gwynnega]

We actually had snow in Los Angeles yesterday--mostly in Burbank. Alas, there was none in my part of town, to my disappointment. (I have never seen actual snow, aside from a few blobs of it by the side of the road while driving to Vegas in the wintertime.) But today when I drove to Glendale the nearby foothills were very pretty and white.

This afternoon I traded in a bag of books at Mystery & Imagination Bookstore, and came away with the collected stories of Amanda Cross. A few blocks away, Borders Glendale was having its going out of business sale, but I didn't go. (I did stop at Lush for some nice bath products.)

At Trader Joe's people were busy buying snacks and wine for Oscar parties. Not sure how much of the Oscars I'll watch (though I am curious what film will snag Best Picture). All these years later, it's still pretty hard to top John Wayne giving the Best Picture award to my dad's movie!

Aww, sorry you got no snow! (It is AT LAST warming up here - the ice unfroze, then it started to rain instead of freeze/snow, and I think the low will be thirty, THANK GOD.) Her stories are excellent (I also love the Marple collected stories).

Glad it's warming up a bit where you are! I keep hoping we'll have another spate of weird weather and I can get some snow...

Hugs and a good evening (even with anti-climactic Oscars)!

Well, several movies I enjoyed are up for awards, so I am looking forward to seeing who gets what!
