Buffalo Girls Going Round the Outside

Whiskey pick for the weekend...Buffalo Trace Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey! You will see why its scored high in Jim Murray's Whiskey Bible in 2009. At 90 proof this whiskey is surprisingly smooth. Corn, Rye and barley with a hint of vanilla. But be ready, there is no time for grazing. It packs a punch..that bull will knock you on your feet if you aren't lookin'! So put on your riding boots and let's have a few!

Looking For Love?

So last night after work I decided I'd make a run to the famous Thai Patio just near my apartment. Best Thai food around as I'm concerned and not high priced. Open till 4 am on the weekends..woo hoo!! I usually dine-in, but do the occasional takeout. Just a couple bucks for valet, but caught a spot in front of Daily Donuts with a sign that read Daily Donuts only, will tow. Oh well, I thought if they want me to buy a donut to park here I will...don't threaten me with a good time!!
Thai Patio picks of the night: Pad Thai (which I only order here)
                                           Thai Salad with chicken and shrimp
                                            AND.....Mango Sticky Rice..oh no you didn't!
Yes I did, one of my favorite desserts. Slices of mango with hot sticky sweet rice with warm coconut milk on top. I literally want to roll around in it...so good..watch out because I get everyone addicted to this stuff!

These Pretzels Are Making me Thirsty!

Oh Oh Oh Olympia! Out with the old and in with new. Now that PBR is going out of style..Los Feliz hipsters are turning to this beauty. "It's The Water!" It's one of my new favorite canned beers. Brewed back in 1896 and seen in movies like The Graduate and Thunderbolt and Lightfoot it's finding it's way back into the hands of low budget, vintage wearing, old school loving LA-inites like you and me!
If you want something with more body, try my other favorite Young's Double Chocolate Stout..so much better in a can than a bottle..check it! Tastes like Guiness..plus! and tastes like chocolate...bonus!

Death by Candy




I deffinitly have to check this place out!! Who's coming with me??! Tons of sodas, and old school candies galore. A pinball machine, a rocket ship ride, the kind you used to find in front of Kmart when you were a kid...even a patio in the back where they play movies..so cool! All found in Burbank on Magnolia. Yum, Yum, Yum...

Easy like...Wednesday afternoon?


Who wakes up early enough on weekends after going out or working late to catch the sweet treats at your local Farmers Market? Not me! Thats why i'm so glad Los Feliz has a mini Farmers Market every Wednesday from 12-6! Its located on Hollywood Blvd. at the nostalgic Barnsdall Park. Small, but well filled with produce, baked goods, even sweet potato pie's, some leather goods and jewelry, hot tamales!!, honey and cute little honey bear candles, fresh flowers and super friendly vendors. My pics of the day were trail mix (Hollywood Mix of course!) because I've had a craving and these amazing huge, juicy strawberries!! Maybe groundhog Phil was wrong..I think Spring HAS come early!
Check out the parks site for directions and other activities www.barnsdallartpark.com
