I Got High Eating at This Fancy Downtown LA Restaurant
As hard as I was trying to play it off, I was high. But let’s put some particulars to that. I wouldn’t say I was “hallucinating” high because I’ve been there and you don’t forget the time your dog finally spoke English. While I wasn’t that far gone I was definitely leaning towards the, “I’m
Momed and Other LA Restaurants Serve Up a Cocktail for a Cause
It doesn’t take long to fall in love with a restaurant. Or, at least it shouldn’t.

Planned Parenthood LA’s “Food Fare” Brings Top Restaurants Together for a Great Cause
Planned Parenthood holds a special place in my heart for all the work they do in the communities they serve. Even more, Planned Parenthood holds a special place in my uterus for all the free birth control they’ve given me. As blunt and foolish as the second half of that truth may sound, it’s still
Rance’s Chicago Pizza Opens at USC Village and You Need to Get a Slice
I had been walking around the USC Village for about fifteen minutes in the rain and clearly I was lost. My bright rainbow colored umbrella going north across the village, then south, then west was probably telling to anyone seeing me make a circle that I had no clue where I was going. I was tempted
I Love Mr. Holmes Bakehouse and It’s Not Just Because of Their Pastries
I’ve been going back to Mr. Holmes Bakehouse a lot since they first opened and I don’t mind looking like a bit of a stalker. Peering through a window at an unsuspecting resident is never acceptable, but when it’s to an array of pastries and desserts one might not report it to the cops. In
