This image perhaps sums up my Valentine's Day. A red rose stuck in an empty bottle of wine. Actually the red rose was given to us by the doorman and a glass of champagne by the concierge.
The plan by the building management was for "champagne and roses" from 5pm until 9pm. I arrived home at 4pm. Worked prepared dinner. Sue arrived home avec champagne and rose courtesy of the front desk ,around 6:15pm. Julia arrived around 6:30 no rose, no champagne. I gather "foreigners" to the building didn't benefit from the largesse of the management. So after dinner (a rather splendid risotto from the culinary skills of yours truly) we, Julia and I, headed to the theatre to see Come back Little Sheba starring S Epatha Merkeson (another story in itself). We met Margie in the foyer sipping Valentine's Day champagne. So off to the theatre and a great performance which was enhanced by champagne and roses and chocolate in the foyer to get myself back together again. Hence the second rose in the wine bottle.
