The Norton Simon in Pasadena is one of my favorite museums. One of my favorite rooms is what I call, "The Ladies' Room." What you see above is what's in it. I always like to pop in and say hi. If you are a Southern California resident, the first Friday of every month from 5 to 8 p.m. is free. The rest of the month, it's not an expensive museum and it's definitely worth every penny of the $12 admission price. I could easily spend all day in certain rooms taking everything in.

My favorite redhead's bedroom is hanging there until March 6th. It is an absolute must see. I will be going again before it bids me adieu.
