Danielle Steel, former San Francisco resident and vocal critic of Teva sandals, was back in town this weekend for the San Francisco Art Fair at Fort Mason. The Chronicle's Leah Garchik reports Mrs. Steel was spotted when she "swooped in" to the festival sporting an "orange chubby", which is apparently some kind of furry or feathery shoulder covering...and not what you were thinking it was. If Garchik's description makes Mrs. Steel sound like she is getting ready for another How Weird Street Faire, you'll have to forgive the prolific author - she did admit she looks like a mess when she's in town. The author later purchased an oil painting of worn out sneakers by artist Gordon Smedt. [Chron]
