Sally Kirkland gracedand the this week with a casual stroll through nature.
She needed a break, it's been a tough time.
Her beloved Silver Spoon restaurant (where she has introduced Studio City Patch to Shelley Winters in the past) is being demolished, and she also gave a eulogy to her friend, Susan Tyrell, just last weekend. Tyrell used to be Kirkland's roommate. They were both nominated for Oscars, and after years of illness, Tyrell died in June.
