The First Day of Hoffmas: Ktown Night Market

As soon as I heard that the Ktown Night Market was debuting on my birthday weekend, I knew I had to make that part of the festivities.  This fantastic two-night event showcased some of the greatest vendors and food that my neighborhood has to offer.  How could it get any better? I headed to the […]

The Ten Days of Hoffmas

I’m big into birthdays.  Like, really big into them.  So big, that every year I throw a weekend-long fest crammed full of my favorite things around Los Angeles, which I call Hoffmas.  All I want every year is to be surrounded by my friends and have a great time.  I specifically plan the Hoffmas activities […]

Happy Hoffmas!

Hello my lovelies! I’ve been MIA from the blogosphere the past week or so while I celebrate my birthday, or as I call it, Hoffmas! We had tons of fun over the past weekend, including the Koreatown Night Market and Olvera Street on Easter. Stay tuned for more on the birthday adventures! In the meantime, […]

Gold Blob

I don’t know what you are, gold blob on the sidewalk, and I think it’s best we keep it that way. I do know that you do a good job at catching newspapers in your sticky grasp.

CicLAVia: Iconic Wilshire Blvd. – 4/6/2014

CicLAvia–one of my favorite events in Los Angeles!  Today’s event was Los Angeles’ ninth installment of the car-free event.  Wilshire Blvd. was closed to vehicle traffic from Miracle Mile to the Financial District.  Thousands turned out with bicycles, skateboards and roller blades.  There were several designated walking areas for those who wanted to enjoy the […]

This Weekend: Giving the Streets Back to Foot and Bike Traffic

If you live or play anywhere near Mid City, do yourself a solid and abandon your car this weekend.  Giant portions of major throughways throughout Los Angeles will be shut down for special events.  This means massive headaches for drivers.  Expect delays that make you with the President was in town. Saturday, the Hollywood Half […]

Couch Adventures

Today I had a very unusual day–I didn’t leave my apartment at all. I did some serious spring cleaning.  I did some serious Netflix watching too.  I just got into House of Cards.  I think I want to be Claire Underwood. The biggest adventure of the day is the delicious Mediterranean restaurant that delivers in […]

Should Bicyclists Need a License?

This morning I was a block from home on my ride to work.  I was going down a small, yet steep hill with an immediate right turn at the bottom.  I had to quickly dart out of the way of another cyclist who was riding down the wrong side of the street.  On my ride […]

Surf’s up, brah!

For the past year, I’ve been working evenings and Saturdays at my corporate job.  It worked out pretty well with my lifestyle.  I enjoyed being able to wake up without an alarm and enjoy a workout and breakfast every morning without rushing.  Sure, I missed out on beach days and BBQs on Saturdays, but it […]

The Sky is Falling

Today was the first significant rainfall that the drought-stricken Southland has seen in months.  In fact, this is the first significant rainfall I experienced since ditching my car.  What’s a girl to do?  Get a little wet, I suppose! I was on the verge of ordering a Lyft to get to work today.  The thought […]
