072010. This may not surprise you: I’ve been writing a lot of lists these past few days … I wrote a list of things I needed to remember to pack when we left the SuperMom’s on Sunday because everything was strewn in every room of the house. (I still forgot the LO’s favorite sippy cup.)
(She loves this sippy cup so much ... but not enough that she won't share it with Hitcher)
I wrote lists of things we needed from the store (like yogurt and cereal and random goodies to have in our Silver Lake sublet).
I wrote lists of people
I want to see while I’m here.
And things I want to do.
Places I want to visit.
But we’ve been back in
Los Angeles for three days, and I’m reminded of so many things I love about Los
Angeles … and now all those lists are changing.
So here’s my current
list of loves in LA:
1. We get to hang out with
the Cowboy again. Woohoo!!!
2. Golden Bridge Mommy & Me Yoga (and daddies, too) After getting there late today, the LO
decided that instead of doing yoga, she would rather be eating an apple. So that’s good, too. Believe it or not, there are no mommy
& me classes in Bozeman.
Shocking, I know. Good
thing that’s something I can personally change.
3. Larchmont Village. My
old hood. I love Larchmont. I love Picket Fences. And I love the Village Wine &
Cheese Shop where we met the Cowboy for lunch today. I love Village Pizza.
And Pain Quotidian. I love
Larchmont Beauty Supply. And Crumbs
cupcake bakery. And I definitely
love that SC and her pup Sadie spend enough time on the boulevard that we can
just bump into them on the street at any given time. The best.
4. Our Silver Lake sublet …
a neighborhood I’ve coveted for years
… and now I get to call it home for 3 weeks. It’s a dream come true! (And the apartment is adorable – thanks to the fabulously
French owner with a charming sense of style.)
5. Trails, at Griffith Park
for tea with the kiddies (the LO’s best friends Oliver and Lux … I’ll get a
picture and the okay to post it because these little ones are ADORABLE!!!!)
6. The Bearded Mr. Frenchy at Fred 62 on Vermont. Mind out of the gutter, people … this is the best dang French toast you’ll ever eat.
7. Barnsdall Art Park Friday night picnic with the gal pals. Good times. Excellently good times.
8. Venice Beach, where
we’ll go tomorrow for a little sun and a little sand.
9. Cholada Thai on the PCH,
where we’ll go after the sun and the sand for a little Spicy Fried Rice. (I
guess I like the food in Los Angeles)
I’m going to leave 10
open for all the other things I’m going to remember I love in the next 3 weeks.
Q: What do you love about where you are right now?
