YEP - it is getting to be time to shop for the Holidays....


Last weekend I went to check out the artwork of the fabulous Bob Dob at La Luz de Jesus Gallery in Los Feliz...

In case you haven't been, the gallery co-exists with a super fun book and gift store. You step in and to get to the gallery have to walk through all the crazy gift types items to reach the gallery part of the store. This type of layout is genius - no matter how much I tell myself I am only going to look at the art, I always seem to spend abut an hour looking around the rest of the store until I fall into the street with many a bags of goodies.

If you like funky artsy gift type items that span from shower curtains, wallets, books and lighters - this is the place to check out.

more MAC-N-CHEESE...

ALERT ALERT..

You all know I love to report on good places to get good Macaroni and Cheese...

On a recent outing to get Breakfast (yes, BREAKFAST) I had some YUMMY TO MY TUMMY Macaroni and Cheese in the Artist District of Downtown Los Angeles at Cafe Metropol...

On a low note, I felt it was a bit over priced BUT it was good sooooo good! I guess it is just like a great pair of Prada shoes - A bit pricey but always good!
