the soda pop (beer and old school gum) stop

a few weeks ago, after a wicked good brunch at larkin's, we stopped at Galco's (est. in 1897, i might add) to pick up a few sunday afternoon supplies (beer, beer, and some old school gum). i loved the vintage signage & check out counter (50's light blue formica with chrome edging). the vintage candy display seemed to go on for days. beer & wine from around the globe. we chose the Raging Bitch IPA which was excellently hoppy & with a slightly sweet note. and the most expansive selection of soda pop you've even seen.

lover sp. 2010 will help

simple, smart & perfectly styled, lover's sp. '10 lookbook is killing me!! p.s. i swore i would never ever wear head-to-toe-labels, but i think i'm rethinking. envisioning: fancy yet relaxed dinners on the patio with friends, spiked lemonade, homemade lemon tarts & backyard movie screenings.

here comes the sun

i do this every year -- i somehow forget just how hot it gets in our part of los angeles during the summer months. today gave us a glimpse of what's to come... weird, though, that snow can still be seen on nearby mountains.
