Gentle Friends, Christmas is in full swing in our life here by the Bay. The week started off with the arrival of our Christmas cards... I love sending out cards every year and once again I had a friend snap a photo at Thanksgiving that I turned into our card.... here's what it looks like this year...
... and then later on in the week was our company Christmas Lunch. This year we came back to the City and headed down to the Embarcadero...
... to The Slanted Door.... it was a really tasty lunch... they serve things "family style" so you get to taste or leave alone things ordered...
here's a snaparoo of my lunch...
... there was bok choy, gulf shrimp, and some really delicious beef covered in what was probably some of the best mushrooms I've ever had!!! For dessert there was...
and then with the espresso came three of these to the table...
... some flavoured cotton candy.... a little odd but did that stop anyone.... nope!!
... the views were of a very smooth bay looking towards Treasure island... I think the only real drawback was the noise level was out of control. Just really too loud for any kind of conversation or just basic talking to your dinner partner.

Then the week wrapped up with our going out into a rainy evening to see...
... we took an Uber to the Theater and the traffic was backed up all over downtown... crazy drivers and rain are not a good mix!!
... ACT (American Conservatory Theater) has been doing ACC for years at the lovely old Geary Theater. The theatre dates to 1910 and is a real gem of neoclassical revival. It is a smaller space and feels really intimate. The play was fun and they did a super job interpreting the story!!
