巴黎百年甜品店Fauchon因为疫情要关门了,悲哀。Fauchon近几年一直经营不善,又太依赖游客生意。上次去巴黎每天早上去买新出炉的巧克力卷,至少早点价格还蛮亲民的。

作为傻游客,我超级喜欢fauchon,不喜欢地道亲民的法国甜品。

Let’s talk California. Until recently, our state managed to do so well that our experience has been dubbed The California Miracle. But let’s say it clearly: The Miracle is over. The sooner we acknowledge that, the better off we’ll be.



2/ In many of the surging states, including TX, AZ, and FL, one can easily point to leadership malpractice by governors and other politicians. They doled out misinformation about Covid and failed to require evidence-based practices, like masking, to prevent spread. Unforgivable.



3/ California is different: our leaders acted responsibly. And Californians mostly did too.



But around Memorial Day, standards were relaxed, people (yes, mostly young ones) got complacent, and – after a string of lucky breaks – our luck ran out. Now it’s our time.



4/ Let’s start at the beginning. In late Feb, there was every reason to believe that CA – huge, diverse, fairly dense, w/ lots of travel to/from Europe/China – would be slammed. In fact, when I launched these tweets in mid-March, I fully expected to be chronicling an apocalypse.



5/ But we made it through 3 mths remarkably unscathed. On June 1, CA had ~100,000 total cases & 4,000 deaths. In contrast, NY State, with half our population, had ~370K cases & 30,000 deaths. “The California Miracle” narrative was born; I contributed to it



6/ Leaders in CA, from the governor (who ordered shelter-in-place on March 19, the first state to do so), to mayors and public health officials, to tech CEOs (many of whom told workers to stay home in early March), were much praised for acting decisively. They deserved it.



7/ There was some luck as well – we never had a big super-spreader event or a massive nursing home, plant, or prison outbreak, the kind of things that created conditions for surges in NY & elsewhere.



As @nytimes just quoted me https://nyti.ms/2Zj6Lla, our luck has just run out.





8/ Early on, CA citizens acted responsibly, w/ precious little anti-mask nonsense & no armed protestors agitating for opening up. CA and its counties enacted sound re-opening plans, with metrics for further opening and spelled-out criteria for retrenchment



9/ In May, all states – red and blue – began opening up their economies. It’s easy to apply the retrospecto-scope now… but the CA plan seemed perfectly reasonable to me, particularly since the state was doing so well, and we had geared up our testing & contact tracing programs.



10/ With re-openings, a bump in cases was expected (that’s the nature of The Dance https://bit.ly/34Ryhsk), but few (including me) expected it to be so fast & widespread. While it’s mostly concentrated in red states, blue states that dodged the first bullet are getting hit too.



11/ While it’s easy to pin the new surges on feckless politicians, CA offers a bit of a controlled experiment: even in a state with mandatory masking & a sound re-opening plan, things went sour. Covid wins again: demonstrating that good leadership is crucial, but not sufficient.



12/ Before blaming it on “the people,” let’s not let politicians – & I’m talking Trump – off the hook. If you’re young, bars are open, & you’ve heard mixed messages re: masks, it’s natural that some would say, “I don’t know whom to believe, but I hate masks so I’m going without.”



13/ So even in CA, with masking & distancing mandates, many people got sloppy. On top of that, our lucky streak came to a screeching halt. One horrific example is San Quentin prison, just north of SF, where the number of infected prisoners just topped 1000



14/ CA’s surge doesn’t match AZ, TX, or FL’s… yet. And – while we’re seeing more hospitalizations – mortality has not climbed… yet. But mortality is a lagging indicator – these new cases are sure to ultimately translate into many deaths, as the cases move to higher-risk groups.



15/ It’s worth comparing CA (on L) w/ TX (R). While CA got most of the nat''l press for being a star pupil, TX # ''s were equally good. This, of course, is an inconvenient truth for those who prefer a simple narrative that attributes everything to clueless, right-wing politicians…



16/ …or to a caricatured view of the populace that says that everybody in CA acts perfectly & everybody in TX is a careless ignoramus. Without forgiving @GovAbbott of Texas for awful leadership (hear The Daily on this: https://nyti.ms/2ZkobxY), the facts are more nuanced.



17/ Here are the numbers: CA is so vast that our # ‘s are sum of multiple different epidemics, and some regions (incl. SF) continue to do OK. But overall, the past 2 weeks are bleak: new cases doubled, hospitalizations ↑43%, ICU pts ↑37%, & test positivity rate from 4.4%→5.5%.



18/ SF not surging, but warning signs. @UCSFHospitals 16 pts, 5 on vents; ~double 2 wks ago. In SF, cases and hospitalizations up; most of bump in hospital pts is transfers from elsewhere. Forgive the metaphor, but if somebody sneezes in LA, we’ll ultimately catch a cold in SF.



19/ As @GavinNewsom said today, 19 CA counties (~70% of state population) now on watchlist because of surges. Bars closing in ~15 counties (incl. LA, Orange). Imperial returning to SIP, LA beaches closing https://bit.ly/2AfESlD. Expect more use of “dimmer switch” in coming wks.



20/ The message from the governor was crystal clear: if we don’t turn things around, we may find ourselves back to widespread shelter-in-place soon. It wasn’t a @NYGovCuomo -esque “Don’t make me come down there” moment https://bit.ly/3dL3qAL, but the resolve was unmistakable.



21/ Trust is key, and Newsom & CA mayors have mostly earned it. Here''s a fun PSA on masks from past 4 governors, GOP & Dems (incl. Ahnold) https://bit.ly/3eWHaW1. This kind of thing will be harder to do in red states, since it’ll involve a lot of walking back past fictions.



22/ As I said last week, we enter this crisis in better shape than we were in March (Fig again below). We’re catching the surges early through testing (not ICU admits), we have some effective treatments, & we’ve built hospital, ICU, & PPE capacity. We should feel good about that.



23/ I don’t know about you, but in March I was scared; now I’m mostly depressed – depressed that we’ve collectively allowed this to happen, depressed that the light at the end of the tunnel may prove to be an oncoming train. But if any state can turn this around, I’d bet on CA.



24/ Stay safe and do the right thing. It’s not too late – California can once again get this thing under control. No grand rounds this week. So back Friday – I hope with some better news.

我有个邻居是瑜伽老师,他们很幸运,房子后面有一块长条荒地。她四年前就说趁整个屋子装修时在后面加建一间瑜伽工作室,然后这个装修一装两三年,她生了俩孩子。完工后我还没去过。上礼拜她终于跳出来说她开始在花园里教social distancing yoga class, 我今天去了,花园整理的不错,保留了不少成熟的树,加了小流水石头池子,几个妇女在树下练瑜伽,花香鸟鸣流水阳光微风,非常愉快,练完瑜伽大家坐着聊天,感觉封锁后第一次跟其他妇女们面对面socialize. 虽然都是一批神叨叨new age 妇女聊妈经,我还是觉得满开心。人还是需要社交啊。 :mrgreen:

我今天出去剪了个头发,半年来第一次,早上第一个appointment, 只有一个人的小工作室,感觉还比较安全。我和发型师都得戴口罩,剪发时用的毛巾围兜之类都改用一次性产品,廉价的薄塑料膜围在身上,感觉非常九十年代三线城市发廊既视感,看得我浑身难受还不能不看--对着大镜子。剪完头发觉得头轻了一公斤,难怪人家说头发是三千烦恼丝。

最近每次洗头发都在思考什么时候去剪一剪,洗和吹干都太麻烦了。从前长发时的发夹发圈还保留了一些,现在再拿出来用。某人含蓄地说你的白头发很明显了,我说反正不出去社交,这么多头发自己染太麻烦了。

我们最近去哪里都争取最早的时间,小K这下子提醒了我,忍不下去时剪头发也可以用这招。我平时的发型师得坐公交车或开车去,走是走不到的,到时候在家附近找一家,剪得不合意也罢了。

上周车子必须去年检,一大早开过去放下车,然后走4公里回来。第二天再走过去取车。公交车我是真不敢坐。

据说公交车和火车现在都很空。如果现在一定要坐我不介意,等大规模复工大家都坐的时候我倒觉得害怕了。虽然这么说,现在我们出门都是开车了。
朋友的丈夫在丰田dealer 工作,现在很忙,来买车的人剧增,他们又已经furlough 了1/3 销售人员,现在所有的manager 都得去卖车。所以他不但要做本来的工作,还要卖车,还要做另一个被furlough 的财务管理的工作--因为只有他以前做过。然后再怎么卖因为禁足期间关门三个月也不可能达到今年销售目标,所以也没有花红。

我头顶白头发也很明显,最近银灰发色很流行,跟发型师商讨过几次要不要改染银灰。他看我拿出来的照片说我后面的黑色头发还太多,要这样的效果得强力漂白后再染,遂作罢。现在不上班我干脆一直让头发长下去,到圣诞节应该就是本色了,届时再决定是漂染银灰还是挑染亮眼的电动彩色。说起来,也已经十多年没见过自己本来的发色了。 :mrgreen:

伦敦其实现在已经不太危险了。我们区持续好几个星期每天只有一两个新增病例。平均七天传染率不到万分之一。
我们放松了一点,这周让小绿去公园上网球课,有几个她的同班小朋友也在上,每天三个钟头跟其他小朋友玩,影响肉眼可见,明显更开心更活泼了。再过两周开学,继续每班十几个孩子组一个bubble的制度, 如果有病例全bubble都要禁足两周,fingers crossed 别碰上。

前两天看了我一直想看的Jiro Dreams of Sushi. 看完,我可耻的馋了。不上班的问题之一是很久没机会去好的日本小馆子吃中饭。我突然极度想念吃真正的寿司。不是三文鱼卷加州卷,是一片鱼,一小坨米饭,已经刷好调料,入口就是完美的一小口天堂滋味的真正的寿司。上网找了下,发现家附近新冒出个popup omakase. 光看到这个词我就很激动,好久没有见到了呀。这个词是‘厨师你看着办有什么上什么’的意思,跟chef's table 差不多,根据我丰富的经验,一个餐馆只有这个没有菜单选择,99%可以肯定正点。这是一个暗号,筛掉不靠谱的客人。有信心只靠少数靠谱的食客做下来的厨师,基本不会欺场。
实在是太好吃了呀,温柔含蓄精彩纷呈不能尽言。每一种食材都被充满爱意的处理。鲜贝切了十八刀,花一样盛开,撒上柚子汁和五种盐。瘦金枪鱼dry age 三天。中金枪鱼用炭微烤。肥金枪鱼精细的剥开取出脂肪享受肥美。节奏控制的非常好,十五道菜毫无重复,最后一个寿司吃下去,我正好喝完一小瓶清酒,微醺饱足,而没有吃撑了的感觉。完美。每一种食材都被以尊重传统的手法,充满爱意的处理。
Image
厨师Chris是个年轻的泰国/哥伦比亚混血儿,长得有点小混混模样,两臂刺青。他父母都是厨师,地点也是在妈妈开的日本餐馆里。有人曾心情激动的跟我推荐过这家餐馆,说是他们吃过的最好的寿司,我开心的马上去吃了顿,实在麻麻。也不难吃,就是普通的外国人开的不太正点但还不错的日本餐馆吧。 Chris 十六岁开始在父母的寿司餐馆工作,长大后出去混,觉得自己虽然从小学做寿司,不够正点,跑到东京寿司学校学艺,不会说日语,要靠翻译跟老师交流。他说终于学到了很多‘why' 而不仅仅是‘how'. 学习分辨鱼的质量和味道,第一次体验omakase,意识到这是厨师能充分表达自己的方式。 回来后一边在其他餐馆工作,一边自己抽空做omakase,每天接三拨客人,以前每拨最多八个人,现在最多四个。妈妈是个胖胖的泰国妇女,很精干的样子,给Chris 打下手。抱怨说禁足后她关了餐馆没事做简直要疯掉了。现在餐馆虽然允许开了,堂食限制很多,不能有多少客人,主要还是外卖。幸好Chris 接不少私人宴会的单,她跟着帮忙。

去考滋吾滋乡下美丽小镇度周末,下榻的小旅馆在皇家空军基地边上,紧挨着的小教堂墓地里许多标有徽记的军人墓地,死于1941-1944 居多,零星有七十年代九十年代的,英国空军陆军,澳大利亚,加拿大空军都有。被打理的很好,墓前玫瑰盛放,墓碑看上去很新净,显然是最近统一清洗过。大约因为都不是本地人战时匆忙无法送回给家人所以葬身异乡,被皇家空军细心统一照顾着。很多年龄只有十九二十几,看起来很唏嘘。

附近有个野生动物园,我们以为很小型,带小绿去打发时间,到了被震撼了,大型动物犀牛狮子猎豹长颈鹿斑马骆驼都有,不少珍稀濒危小动物,动物园本身像是个贵族庄园,后来一查果然是某个在非洲打仗好些年的贵族决定把庄园改成动物园对外开放。效果很逗,犀牛在古宅前晃悠,Downton Abbey被搬到非洲的即视感。

不少亲友团看见照片担心犀牛跟游客之间的阻拦只有几根细铁丝太不安全,实际上是挺巧妙的一个这边乡下庄园常用的传统方法, 把牛羊和花园大宅隔开, 但是不妨碍大宅看出去的风景. 周围挖一条沟,动物这边缓坡,人那边陡坡,动物走到沟里不会受伤但是面对一堵墙走不上去。人这边再拦一几条钢丝,远看几乎看不见,视觉效果很田园自然。
