If there is one thing for certain — the quickest way to put my husband to sleep is by visiting an art museum. Throw in a guided walking tour, and we have a comatose situation on our hands! Kevin checks out the artwork along the Museum Hack Tour of the…

Los Angeles is known for its Hollywood stars and film studios. But did you know about Las Vegas’ long and deep ties to Tinseltown? I sure didn’t! We highly recommend joining the 90-minute Pop Culture Walking Tour of Fremont Street. This isn’t any boring history tour (trust me, Kevin has a knack…
There is no shortage of fun things happening this weekend in LA. But your time is precious — and nothing is worse than being stuck in traffic and showing up at a lame event. This week, we’re recommending some of the top food and culture events in the city including…
