Such gorgeous weather here in Oakland! Spent the entire day hanging the art show with Donna but went out for lunch. Had salmon, green beans, tsukemono and miso soup at B-Dama. Was happy to see posters promoting my work at several stores. Worked non-stop until 7:30pm but then had a sumptuous dinner at Mockingbird. I had trout and Donna had some Moroccan chicken. So good! For dessert we had citrus almond cake, topped with chocolate ganache and candied almonds. A well-deserved treat after a long day of work. The show looks beautiful! It opens tomorrow at 6:30pm and will be followed by a screening of A Thin Wall. There will be Afghan food, ghoraybe cookies made by Reem’s Bakery, Ghalib’s poetry sung by Jagjit Singh, art, photography, film and so much more. Can’t wait.
