2. Bette Davis movies at the Stanford Theatre with Jus & Dan after New Orleans' Nola
3. A beautiful, warm Friday with Manka (Daimaru for lunch, Cafe XO to write and read, Helmand for dinner, then Le Club & walking shimmering Russian Hill with Anna)
4. A rooftop discussion of literature, faith and life with Manka, Jus & Dan atop our roof, under the stars, with a sparkling red and cigars
5. A rich group heart-to-heart discussion at Pilgrim's Place
6. An unexpected few days with dearest kindred Anita (Japanese gardens, tea, tea, flowers, roses, Arboretum, Anita flowers, wearing red, naps in the grass, driving the winding roads of the Russian River Valley, prayer on the water of Sausalito at sunset... running the shore)
7. Tashee's riotous 40th birthday party singing, her joy at engagement to Sax; sitting in Alive's magical, heated patio under the lights and stars with her
8. Immersing myself in the food world with dinners and parties with my editor, for "Feast", at the Taste of Asia event, meeting my favorite local food writers
9. With Amanda: late night car talk of trust & love, then another night of long, sunset Crissy Field beach walk
10. After SF BeerFest, another warm, radiant night, sitting on the water looking out at Golden Gate Bridge, up at the shimmering stars, lights of boats on the water, of Alcatraz, gentle lapping of the waves... in silence, talk and tears of thankfulness... a talk of profound effect with my Dan
