There’s an article in New Yorker about Wayne Thiebaud and Lady M cakes, expensive and him playing tennis at 93, that’s all I got time for

I think it's by Ian Parker

I think it’s by Ian Parker

Marty Ivener the founder of Marty’s Restaurant in San Jose and Annette Ivener’s ex-husband — Annette Sunshine? — not bad for AARP-age speaking of delicacies and sweets — said that at his house they eat desert first. This makes me recall. She was living at Santana Row and Palm Desert or Dessert as the cake may be. Here is link to LadyM.

They are on East 78th in New York or West 3rd Street in L.A. although I don’t know what that means. If they actually have a Thiebaud on the wall or poster even, the way MacArthur Park had some real David Gilhooly’s I will eat a $75 cake to celebrate order in. Maybe I can send The Flying Cohen Brothers also known as Steve and Eric Cohen or Steve Cohen and Eric Cohen to investigate. Belated 50th birthday present me to them: all you can eat at Lady M in L.A. but they have to read this and inquire first. Offer expires 3/16/16

I am such a nostalgic little momma’s boy but when I was 5 or 6 the phone rang and it was Annette for my mother and I left a note: Anet. Mom thought it was good try!

2. Carrying on, to make this more like a post and less of a joke, Terry and I saw a Wayne Thiebaud show at San Jose Museum in 2010.
