Scenes From The Weekend


Enjoyed a (strong) glass of Abey Leffe Blonde out of a Chimay glass at The Local Peasant in Sherman Oaks for my dear friend Ron Weasley (AKA James) birthday. 

Note to Self: Must return to The Local Peasant soon and eat an actual meal.  The food looked incredible!  Deviled eggs with bacon?!? Sign me up!



Congratulated an old pal at Village Idiot for Sunday brunch.


Enjoyed the sunny and upper 70's degree weather outside with B on Melrose.

Note to Self: Work on a more natural looking pose for photos.


Tried out a new *healthy* recipe courtesy of the Trader Joe's Cookbook - Portobello (also seen it spelled Portabella) Mushroom Polenta Stacks. 

Note to Self: Work on food photography skills.

Your Portabella Stacks look restaurant quality! Nice presentation! :) How is the TJ's cookbook? It's been on my Amazon wishlist for a long time but I just haven't pulled the trigger - good investment??

What a fun weekend!

My boyfriend really likes Village Idiot, I'll have to make him take me there!

And the weather was so amazing this weekend...it felt like early summer!!

I think your food pic looks awesome, way better than mine do...I'm terrible at taking pictures of inanimate objects!

I've been wanting to try this recipe! I don't have the cookbook but looked through it at Barnes and Noble one day and thought it looked amazing. Your picture is making me hungry.

Happy early birthday! Any fun plans? And no, that last picture isn't my house. I wish it were though, isn't it so cool? I pulled the pic from weheartit.com.
