happy new year

It's New Year's Eve, and I'm nursing a small cold--but that's okay, because I was already planning on doing my usual caviar, champagne and DVDs New Year's Eve celebration at home. (But I think I'll have mimosas, for added vitamin C!)

Yesterday I went with C. to LACMA to see two fantastic exhibitions: William Eggleston (one of my favorite photographers) and Fashioning Fashion: European Dress in Detail, 1700-1915. So glad I managed to make it to those shows and the Eva Hesse show at the Hammer this week.

I'm not going to do a big 2010 wrap-up, but...
