“Shabu Shabu, Swish Swish” : Eat Shabu, Santa Monica
6 years ago I’d never even heard of the Japanese dining experience that is Shabu Shabu; Northern California is sadly still very behind the times, but luckily for those of us who live in LA/Southern California we have plenty of these places where you can post up in front of a boiling pot of...

Sad but true story… before a few weeks ago I’d never even heard of Union Station / Grand Central Market… and shame. on. me. What an incredible, not to mention historic LA spot! A friend had visited this past week to do some scouting for the company she works for, Tastemade (FOODIES CHECK...

Bucket List Item #78… Check. An “Only In LA” Day
Welp. I can now officially check “attending a lesbian wedding, held at an Indian restaurant, filled with Filipino and Estonian family members” off my bucket list as of today… I’m not sure I would have put any two parts of that together before today, but that’s kind of the beauty of being in a place...
Orange Lips
My favorite accessory for many years now has been lipstick; mostly any and all shades of red to be exact. I have an entire drawer in my bathroom that is dedicated to my lipstick/lipgloss collection… It’s kind of disgusting I know, but every time I open that drawer and see all those tubes I...
