fourth day: john and i started out at shannon and robert's new house. we had brunch and enjoyed the sunshine that poured in through the windows of the dining room. shannon is such a great host- she made pouched eggs, chicken sausage, provided bagels and lox with cucumber, red onion and tomato. Also brie and blueberries which taste absolutely gorg together as we discovered. we discussed furniture options and decorating ideas and peter shin and his little one dropped by, which was a nice surprise. after a leisurely brunch john and i headed over to LACMA for the Vanity Fair exhibit. i love museums and i love art, but it is rare that i actually stop and read each and every placard. it was historical and full of rich images that made me sparkle inside. i was particularly pleased with the amount of women photographers displayed and employed by Vanity Fair, even in the early days. Vanity Fair has been the only fashion magazine i've ever subscribed to- i have always loved their flair for style, art and politics. we had a early supper, late lunch of crispy chicken salad with champagne dressing outside soaking up the son and then headed over to the new building for contemporary art. i love contemporary art and i was not disappointed with the vast and large pieces on display, particularly the Ed Ruscha. we went home and spent some time with mimi, but were in the mood for warm home cooked type food so we went to Kate Mantilini's in beverly hills where i had a chicken pot pie. i crashed that night to my favorite christmas movie, elf.
