Ding Ding!

Hi all!

We flew into San Francisco last night! I apologize if this post doesn't make much sense, as I think I lost my brain somewhere between London and San Francisco. Maybe it was when we were on a 4 hour domestic flight without any on-flight entertainment, and the only amusement I found was peeking in between the seats in front of us and reading over some bald dude's Word document on Geology, and some pretentious dude in a suit's Forbes and Golf Digest. (Seriously. Who reads Golf Digest?)

(Sorry if you do.)

We'll be in town for a couple days, visiting some friends and meeting up with some girl crushes. We're not on The Tour yet, though, as we're going home for Easter (because I'm so religious) and will be hanging out in Sacramento all week (aka Watch TV on my mom's couch), and then heading up to Lake Tahoe for the weekend. (aka Drinking in the snow.)

Then! We'll be back in San Francisco from March 31st to the 3rd of April before heading off to TOKYO and PARIS! Woot!

I need suggestions of where to go in Paris and Tokyo! Help a pastry out! Where should we go? What should we do?

Also, I'm in the The Guardian today giving terribly authoritative quotes on Dollymix and why women's blogs are better than fashion magazines.

In the US earlier this month, a group of women announced that they were launching a website for women over 40, called wowowow.com (a play on "women on the web" — an address that, tellingly, they had to buy from a porn site). There can be no doubt about the power of these women. The five founders include Joni Evans, former president of the publishing house Simon & Schuster, and Peggy Noonan, a columnist and former presidential speechwriter. There can also be no mistaking how serious they are about making the site a success. Each founder has contributed $200,000 (£100,000) , they have hired five full-time, web-savvy members of staff , and bloggers on the site include Lily Tomlin, Whoopi Goldberg and Candice Bergen.
