It’s the first weekend in May! This comic sums up how I feel about that. On Thursday, my husband and I saw The Color Purple at the Orpheum Theater in San Francisco, and it was a really wonderful show. I’ve always loved the book and was excited to see how it would come to life on the stage. This weekend, I’m helping to organize my kids’ preschool silent auction fundraiser, so I’m both looking forward to the party/ will be happy when it’s over. At least there will be margaritas there in honor of the Cinco de Mayo theme!
