It’s over. My big event is all done. Hellooooo, normal life! Kind of. I have next week to get content to our web people and we need to launch that puppy at the end of next month. But today, I will wrap up other things and will lunch at Drago Centro. Yep. Treating myself to a Dine LA menu as a celebration of having managed a sold-out event and having been with the Office for 4 years. I’ve also been blogging a little prolifically at the food blog since I started to remember to pick up my camera when I...

It was a rainy Friday but folks in the office were keeping it warm and fuzzy inside with our lovely annual Valentine’s Day potluck. I mean, look at this spread! I made the “How deep is your love? 7 layers!” Dip for the office. I ate more sweets that I’ve eaten any in weeks…in one morning. The bourbon sauce on the bread pudding was awesome. But soon after eating that, I started to get a little bit of a headache. I thought it might be because I didn’t have caffeine today, so I went back to the spread for some...

I was on the couch most of the day yesterday. Oddly enough, it was quite a productive afternoon. I haven’t quite gotten caught up with all my magazines. I would leave them on my little side table/cabinet by the couch so I can read them when I plop down. However, the Man of the House doesn’t like seeing stuff on there (even though he generally sits on the other side of the couch), so he would put them in the cabinet. Since I don’t see the magazines there, I forget about them. Until the newest one arrives in the mail...

My week came at me fast and left just as quickly. It seems like yesterday when I was just here, happily typing away, telling you guys about our hike at Holy Jim trail. Here we are, a week after. Went by me in a blink. Inauguration Day was also our 7th wedding anniversary. It was a new beginning for the country I live in and quite a momentous moment in my marriage. Last year, people said that America would rather elect a woman than a black man as president. Here stands Barrack Obama in front of millions, the day after...

Not resolution. Goals. Back in my Taekwondo days, our master had us turn in our 10 goals for the year and recap what you’ve accomplished the year before. Guess I’ll start that tradition here on the blog this year. 1. Explore Kung-fu. I did like Taekwondo but as strange as this may sound I’m looking to do something more flow-y. Dance-like. Capoiera would be cool to explore too. 2. Drink more water: one glass in the morning and one before bed. Ah, the yearly goal. I tend to give up after trips to the bathroom in the middle of the...

Drinking Buddy of the Year: Dave the New Guy Well, at this point, Dave is not new any more. Since Celeste has left the company, Dave has stepped up to be the man to call on for a little happy hour action. As a matter of fact, Dave led the pack to the fun night in West Hollywood a few months back with Nik, Erin and I in tow. That was quite a night. Bar of the Year: Suede Bar, Downtown LA Oh, how have we survived the hard day of work before Suede? Suede opens up in the Bonaventure...
