But for the fact Aunt Molly Babad couldn’t join us the Babad-Mulroney-James-Loucks gang had a wonderful time this weekend. This shot of Uncle Jake with nephew Isaac sums up the vibe. That, and it makes Aunt @CharlotteBabad jealous that she didn’t capture the moment.

Sharing this again, this time with three grandchildren. The sense of loss remains.

And what are you doing for fun this summer, Catherine?

Oh, dear God in heaven…

World’s proudest mother. My son Jake is now co-owner of Westwood Creative Artists. Particularly meaningful for me because Mike and I were represented first by the Lucinda Vardey Agency, which became part of Westwood. Circle complete.

I know where I’ll be next Monday!

The face of a man who has sold his soul.

Clara’s coming over so rounded up some costume jewelry for dressing up. Then I found my old charm bracelet, given to me by my Great Aunt Catherine. An ardent nationalist, her first charm to me was Centre Block. 1/3

How great are these????

My gorgeous new flannel nightgown from Arlene Massey just arrived. Crazy Marimekko-meets-Peter Max pattern. Fabulous weight and hemmed to length. About the price of an L. L. Bean gown but infinitely superior. Best of all, made to order in Gananoque, ON.

Ah, life on X. Eleven days into the new year and we’re back to people misreading my name and insulting my father.
