Impromptu
This post is for my friend Aparna in Bangalore, who I thought of a lot on a last-minute trip to Los Angeles this weekend.
I went down for a special event and to hear a dear friend and colleague speak (some of you might recognize who all that hair in the foreground belongs to!).
But it was also a lazy day of walking on the beach as the afternoon cooled down, exchanging gossip with friends, eating wonderful food, and getting a bit dizzy and nauseated in the famed LA traffic.
Apoos, you were sorely missed!
(I got some knitting done, about which more later. For now, can you spot two recently finished projects in the pictures above?)
thank you, thank you, thank you!!
i am still jealous but much mollified by your post — am glad you guys had a blast!!
me again to say that side view of the beard is hilarious!
The puff-sleeved cardigan looks wonderful on the beach!
I can’t make out a second piece – the figures are a bit dark…
Recognised the cardigan…was the other one a scarf?
And the hirsute gentleman reminds me of Prof Abhijit Sen.
Wait, Center for India AND South Asia? What what? Is the hirsute one responsible for that neologism? I am too lazy to actually find out.
Also GO B!
You’re making me homesick, darn it. (cute cardi)
That beach looks so inviting! One FO is the puff-sleeved cardigan (cute!!), the other one, hmmm….
