Enchanted April

Ok so who wants to go to Italy? I DO I DO!!! We went to a play last night and I tell you, it was semplicemente favoloso (simply fabulous)! It was about two women who are lonely and somewhat lost in their married life. They see this advertisement about a villa in Italy for rent and on a whim plan to go! They can't however afford the rent (60 pounds for one month - a castle even! This takes place in the time of WWI) so they put up an ad for two more ladies to come with. The mix of people turns it into a comedy - 2 married women, 1 young beautiful aristocrat, and one old (and strict) woman. It's really cute though the friendships that blossom, and the realizations about their lives that they make.


The lady who is the maid/cook at the villa was soooo adorable too. I didn't understand a word she was saying (she only spoke italian) but you got a pretty good idea ;) They had a lot of fun with it, that's for sure!! I really liked too the feeling I got from it. It reminded me that maybe I need to take a step back and take a break, so that I can fully appreciate everything in my life.

And speaking of appreciation - before the play Chad and I went to eat at The Vicious Circle. I love the place. Anyways, I had a martini, as usual (they have an amazing martini menu) and this time tried the Banana Split martini. WOW! I hope to perfect it so I can serve it to guests some day. Very good. And the food there is always so great. If you ever find yourself there, order the Thai Chicken Pizza. Well, I guess that's it until next month which - Beauty and the Beast. This one looks unreal!!! I can't wait :D
