Merrymaking on the grass and other adventures.

[info]gcmadtown81 arrived on Thursday not too much the worse for wear after taking the bus from the wilds of Wisconsin - and laden with gifts, the naughty boy - three kinds of exotic teas, a stunning peacock blue obi with a silver fan motif, and a shawl he'd spun and knitted for me.

So I took him to Moe's. I managed to get out empty handed - after all I was there recently and dropped some money on a very nice book on that visit. They had copies of Noma's excellent Japanese Costume and Textile Arts, so he got one. Dinner at the Berkeley Thai House, gelato at Figaro's in the Public Market food court over in Emeryville.
