To Be or Not to Be…

To be or not to be…that is the question. Apparently the answer is not to be. My sister and I made plans to go see Shakespeare in the park today. There was supposed to be a performance of Pride and Prejudice. When we got to the park we didn’t see any signs, crowds, or a stage so we were a bit confused. We decided to go into a little restaurant close by and see if they knew where the event was being held. A woman was kind enough to show us where the performance would have been if it were still on. You read that right. There was not going to be a show. She told us that the same thing happened yesterday. I figure either the information on their website is incorrect or all of the actors and stage hands got sick and couldn’t make it. Not cool on their part but hey it happens. We were both bummed but we decided to laugh about it and make plans to do something next weekend.  Since we were already there, we decided to sit for a bit. It was a pretty park with little swings and a view of the city skyline. We were able to enjoy it for about 5 minutes before the weather decided to turn on us too. Come on Mother Nature! After that we found ourselves at the bookstore. On a positive note, I finally got my hands on Cooked by Michael Pollan! If you haven’t heard of him Pollan is a New York Times best selling author and journalist who writes about what we eat, where it comes from, and what it does to or for our bodies.  I’m looking forward to reading this one. I’ll probably be doing a review/recap of it here on the blog in the future. I hope you all are enjoying your weekend!
