OMG!!!!!!! Well, this was certainly a dream come true! I called Kakki this morning to see if she wished to have lunch- and of course, she most graciously agreed. After a bit of sightseeing, we decided on a restaurant. Kakki had a tuna melt, I had a shrimp Louie salad- relevance of this to be revealed in a moment! We were almost finished when all of a sudden I see Kakki's mouth drop to the floor and I'm feeling kicks on my shin!! Sure enough, there was our goddess seated at the table next to us!!! Who cares that Paula Abdul was sitting at the one behind us!!! Needless to say, I am still in complete shock! I'm thinking how are we going to make this happen, what do I say, do I ask for a picture??? Kakki, being the quintessential LA woman, said to just cool my jets, and we will see what happens. Kakki already mentioned how it happened, and all I can add is that JM was sooooo incredibly gracious, friendly, from the heart and interested. And man, can she talk!!!! So the food connection! Joni ordered a shrimp Louie to start, and then a tuna melt!!!!!! Signs in the heavens? perhaps more later, but it was, of course, a life-long dream come true.
After we left, Joni did a little shopping and we met again downstairs- I told how I was so looking forward to seeing her again next month at Harbourfront. "Oh! Are you going to be there?" she says!!!! DUH!!! I said that it was such a nice honour for her, and to be included with such luminaries. She was so gracious. Enough for now, I have to see if one of Kakki's famous martini's will calm me down now! Best. Stephen in LA Give up smoking??? Never! hee hee
