Sherlock’s Kitchen
It’s fitting that the color scheme of Sherlock’s Kitchen is green – all shades of green! Light green, medium green, leaf green, industrial green, jade, olive, spring, pistachio, honeydew – ALL THE GREENS!

So Tired, So Happy!
What an amazing week. WOW. I have a kind of heady exhaustion right now I haven’t felt in a long time. It’s the kind of post-show-opening buzz one feels the day after first night of a hard theatrical production. A few things I did this week, each requiring varying amounts of mental and/or physical …
