Being in San Francisco for the past week and a half we've had many events that have been private and haven't gone out a lot. Tonight, my BFF and I went to Tyler Florence's new restaurant. We had the best time and it is our new spot since the Acme Chophouse has closed. Yes, very different restaurants but the Tartare at Wayfare Tavern is amazing. Beyond compare. Even in Paris it doesn't meet what we had tonight. Thanks!
An aggregate of information that makes me think about why people aren't progressive.
Why not progressive?
At times I'm frustrated by those that don't follow politics in the United States. I worry they don't vote, I worry they don't get their opinion out there. Of course, I am very progressive and very much in opposition to the right, however, I'm being inspired by a much greater goal than politics. Politics is all cyclical. It's not important in the grand scheme of things. The important part of life is what all the regular people are doing. I'm changing the focus of this blog a bit. Not because I think the Tea Party won the midterms or anything like that but because I want to elevate us above that sort of derogatory nonsense into something that is far more useful. Something to save us and save the world. Small goals, I know. But seriously something to talk about.

What Would The First Dude Do?
Reading this article all I could think of is what the First Dude would do in office. Literacy? I don't think so. Anti-obesity? I don't know. But not after his wife has said this: Sarah Palin Blathers

I"m concerned about this.....
Walmart is a behemoth and personally, I don't shop there because I don't believe their practices help the world. I ran across this article and can't help thinking, "Why is a centenarian working?" OK, well that's her choice. Next, I'd ask, "Is her employer asking her to act as loss prevention?" Why on earth would she ever try to stop someone that she suspected of thievery? If her employer encouraged her to they should absolutely be charged with elder abuse. If they didn't discourage the act they should be charged with negligence. The 37 yo woman that committed the act should go away for a long time, too. This is disgusting.

Words to live by
Every Saturday morning I start with the Home and Garden section of the NYTimes. Today is no exception. I found this article and the last quote hit home with me. I thought I'd share both.
“People doing good things on this earth, leaving the world a better place. It doesn’t matter what you do — if you do for cats, fine; if you do for Uganda, fine; if you do for trees,” she says. But “everybody owes it to the world to make it a little bit better.”

HRH The Prince of Wales on Dateline
That headline seems really demeaning to the monarchy but I believe it will do more good than harm. Take a look online. The Man Who Will Be King
