New day, week, month.  Weather like tropics, only fog is missing.  The morning in Roxbury and then several days on the secret Korea project, a draft proposal, and articles on Japan.

M comes to Boston on Friday, via NYC, and originally from Kyoto, for a few days of New England winter cheer.  Where to take her to eat?  To one of the two decent French restaurants in town?  To one of the two Italian restaurant worthwhile?  The French places are about $100 p.p. and the Italian places are booked solid.

So: Cocktails in Harvard Square and lobster at home from New Deal.
