Dear Rachel Dratch,
Because I'm bored and this looks like some old school 1999-era fun, I'm going to fill out this survey from Rodarte's Kate and Laura Mulleavy. I am very much a fashion nerd but this survey is not very fashion-y. Here we go.
Favorite play? I'm not sure if this should count, but I really did love The Color Purple when I saw it on Broadway.
What was your first love? Food.
Favorite language? English!
Who is your most loved character in literature? I'm tempted to say Truman Capote because he put himself in every single one of his stories. Maybe I'll be super weird and say Scarlett O'Hara from Gone With The Wind.

Favorite place to read a book? The couch in my living room.
Favorite place in NY? This restaurant we always go to with my friend Maura where I get the most delicious vegetarian eggs benedict.

Favorite painter/painting? Would it be weird to say I sort of like Mark Rothko? I like his huge pieces of one or two solid colors.
