What I Wore: Buttons and Baubles

I have a stain on my shirt, because I am a mess and I cannot control myself. I’ve actually been kind of down on myself lately for how incompetent I am at being even the slightest bit graceful or delicate. I am constantly slamming my hands and fingers in things, stubbing my toes, tripping over my own feet, spilling, catching and ripping my clothes and jewelry on everything available. Tonight while I was getting gas, I got my necklace stuck to the clasp on my wallet. Who does that?!

But I know what this means. I’ve been under a lot of stress lately and haven’t been getting enough sleep. As oafish as I usually am, when I’m this bad, it’s a clear sign that I need to slow down and take care of myself. So I’ll just put ‘self care’ on the long list of things I have to do right now.

What I Wore: Tartare

Today was supposed to be the first of a series rainy days in LA that didn’t materialize, but I dug out my old boots anyway just in case. No need to get caught in the rain with wet socks. Anyway, this blog is called Tartare because we went to Cecconi’s for our department holiday lunch and that was our appetizer. It was the first time I had steak tartare, and man is it delicious. My previous raw meat experience is all sushi, so I was expecting to have to chew a lot more, but Steak tartare is like pâté if pâté was good and not utterly disgusting.
