Feeling nostalgic for the 1980’s? Kevin and I recently checked out two hot spots in Los Angeles re-creating the glory days. Or maybe just imagine the 80’s if you’re like our 20-year old assistants that miss about every throwback reference we have (and make us feel totally ancient!). The wall…
Los Angeles
Los Angeles has no shortage of food festivals and events. And if there is one thing our readers know, it’s that we love to eat! As the official guinea pigs, we’ve compiled our top picks on the best of the best. Our criteria is simple — the more variety (and…
Without a doubt, if you’re looking for one of the most unique things to do in Los Angeles, Lost Spirits Distillery is for you. Located in the arts district of downtown LA, the distillery doesn’t have any obvious signage. But you’ll know when you’re at the right spot when you see…
Love it or hate it, Valentine’s Day is around the corner. But an overpriced dinner isn’t the only option for a romantic Valentine’s Day in Los Angeles. In fact, your date might even think you’re being creative by doing something unconventional (and not just being cheap!). Lucky for me, Kevin…

The inspiration behind this blog was not only to find a creative writing outlet, but to share some of the fun and sometimes downright crazy things we uncover. And in the Los Angeles area there are so many great road trips. Just a 20 minute drive, the San Gabriel Valley…
It has been such a crazy July — so when it came time to plan a weekend escape from Los Angeles I knew exactly where to go. Idyllwild, located just 2 hours East of Los Angeles, is a quiet mountaintop community known for its vibrant art scene. Oh, and its mayor…
Kevin and I have been on a cooking craze lately — trying out about half a dozen cooking schools in Los Angeles just this past year alone. We love it since it combines Kevin’s love to take classes, and well, my love of eating! What we learned is that each school…
