Had a dinner meeting in Austin which required an overnight stay. So, brought my gear, got lovely this morning at 6:30am, and made my world premiere at La Madeline for breakfast.
I walked in and obviously looked a bit disoriented (it's kind of a restaurant, kind of a cafeteria, just not all that clear at first glance how you get served). Well, nothing the perky SA hadn't seen before, so she beckoned me over and started explaning "here's the menu, tell me what you want and I'll bring it, free bread and preserves over there, cash register there" and so forth. She was about 5'2" and I'm, oh, 6'4" in my stilletos and felt *** huge ***. Still, confidence and positive presentation go a low way, so that all passed fine.
I've been doing this stuff a long time but proceded to learn something new. Balancing a tray with breakfast and coffee with a purse on your shoulder in high heels is, well, woooooooah...Hugs, Michelle
