Boise and its Mythical "Hobby Lobby"

Dear Imaginary Friends,

Last night, Carlo and I visited the Woolly Mammoth Theater in downtown Washington, DC, to take in A Bright New Boise, a very creative play about big box stores, adoption, and big box fundamentalist churches.

For those who do not know, Boise, Idaho, is a blip on the map. It is situated in Northwest US, away from any large metropolis. 

Somehow, in short of 2 hours, familial alienation, religion (organized and otherwise), and minimum wage existence are all covered in one fell swoop by the playwright.

To digest the play, we went next door to Oyamel, an exciting Mexican restaurant with Day of The Dead special menus, creative flair, and a whole lotta choices of tapas. Yum.

Then to top it off, Chocolate orange sorbet at Pitango, once more, next door.

Food for the brain and food for the stomach!

Your Imaginary Friend,
Patsie
