I am excited about Whipped Cream

Tweet

No, not the one you put on dessert. I hate that whipped cream and always request that it not be put on my dessert or hot chocolate. Though sometimes, I don't tell them "no whipped cream" because I don't think it would be on top of whatever I am ordering but then it is. I am talking about the ballet that's taking place, this week only, at the Met Opera in NYC. I am going there this Saturday. It's a Richard Strauss ballet choreographed by Artist in Residence Alexei Ratmansky and pop surrealist visionary Mark Ryden. According to the Met Opera website this is what Whipped Cream is about: "In this fantastical confection, a young boy overindulges at a Viennese pastry shop and falls into a delirium. To escape his attending physician, the boy dreams of his triumphant rescue by Princess Praline and her court, Princess Tea Flower, Prince Coffee, and the marching Marzipan." This sounds like a very interesting story and the costumes are very colorful and imaginative. I will be sitting in Family Circle again, which is the 5th level of the venue, but it will be in the lower part of it, which I like. Though the seat is not in the center section, it's close to it. The weather won't be cool but should be not as hot as it was when I went to see the Don Quixote ballet last Saturday, which is good. Should be a fun time... And then I will meet up with hubby and we will go dine out somewhere.
