    Mrs. Hale is divine – during that interview she had a chicken salad and two glasses of wine at lunch. You have to love a woman who goes for the second glass in the middle of the day.

    Clearly the language of San Franssco high society is epigram.

    I can't WAIT to be old and call other women "my child".
