Diana Krall cd, breezily flowing through the lobby bar/restaurant at the Ritz Carlton in Philadelphia. I was there with a pretty blue-eyed MUTUAL crush (sigh, so fly), and a bunch of other friends. It was late, and we all had too much of everything. It's one of the marble-y, fantastical wonders of a former bank, where the acoustics are impeccable and clear. Ah. The best moment was the appearance of the chocolate bar, which is something that they do in the dead of winter to chase away the blues. It's usually a pretty penny, but they comped us...so Diana Krall played on as we all had chocolate mousse, hot chocolate, Godiva chocolates...amazing.
