superheroes documentary

our friend jeff helped edit a film that premiered in LA for the United Film Festival. Before this day, I had no idea people walked around claiming they were superheroes.

fresh and seasonal

I needed to take more photos for my research so I asked my friend to meet me here for lunch.

Great seasonal and fresh food by local farmers and foragers. ;)

ice cream date with the girls

These girls and I, we go way back. I love them.

I don't care for egg salad much, but I love this egg salad sandwich at europane.

wood and vine

after hearing about this place from my sister, I had to see it for myself. I asked my friend if we could meet here for some drinks. a glass of red wine and light scotch on the rocks please.

carol's shower

Was early for breakfast so i wandered into this stained glass shop in eagle rock. Loved all the handmade glass.

This girl is the sweetest. All of us from different parts of her life were able to shower her with some love before her big day.

my favorites from "art in the street"

my friend from class took me to this exhibit "art in the streets" at the MOCA. It was an awesome exhibit. Lots to see and experience.

chun sister!

My old roomie came to LA! Was waiting for her at alcove and saw these numbers

brunch at soleil

Nikki and Andrew took me out for brunch today. They name their poutines after their loyal customers. This is called Poutine Christine. It was a rich peppercorn sauce with cheese curds. When we asked how they prepared the sauce, it was a cogniac reduction with some type of FAT. I'm sure of it.

I wonder what a Poutine Janice would be like.

malbec sounds good on a saturday night

I love wine.

I just hate that it leaves my lips dark red.

syrup dessert/coffee

One of the few cafes that close at midnight. I needed this macchiato to keep me attentive.

four cafe with marsh

hot water refills for our tea please :)

east coast kid saw some west coast sunrise

This jersey kid was so excited to go hiking at griffith this morning. Really glad I got to see the sunrise though. We ended the workout with some good pancakes at fred62 diner. Good times.

under the suicide bridge

I've never walked far enough to see what was under the bridge. J wanted to take photos so we found this spot down here. Shade was better than Sun today.

urth caffe to the york

Last few hours with Christine were spent drinking coffee in the sun.

Was able to catch up with the nomad @ the york. Always wanted to sit at the bar whenever I drove by.
