Lucky 13!






I have almost forever thought 13 was lucky. Well since I was ten, and my sister Molly was born on a Friday the 13th in April! Today has been lucky so far. I took my peeps to the kiln and the guy charged me half the price it cost me last year to have my peeps fired. A lovely dinner last night with my favorite creative cohort Jenn at Kirala in Berkeley, to celebrate the completion of her book The Right Brain Business Plan, that I illustrated. It comes out in February... woo hoo! I also got a morning email from Molls with her breakfast, a skype call from Scrub, who I miss kissing so much! Then I got a *text kiss* from Molly + Forrest. And a call from another BF, April, too. Lucky me.

About breakfast. KK who I grew up with at my dad's house... and has been my lifelong friend, 25 years older than me or so, brought me oranges yesterday... I don't love oranges, but I LOVE fresh squeezed OJ!!! I drank it down in two gulps! And do you guys know about Skyr? It is Icelandic strained yogurt that is SO yummy. My godmother Elsa is Icelandic and so when I was 12 she took me to Iceland one summer for almost a month... I had many Icelandic 'cousins' that I was penpals with... remember the 80's and penpals?!! Anyway skyr is one of my godmother's favorite foods in the world... a couple years ago I was visiting Annie in NYC and I saw it for sale in the grocery store by her house! I literally bought all the skyr they had in their store and brought them on the plane in a cooler back to my Godmother in California! Now they sell it at all the Whole Foods. I eat it the way they do in Iceland which is to sprinkle sugar on it and pour cream on top. Yummy!
