Running into TV Doctors at Runyon Canyon

We having been meeting up with some friends at their Hollywood Hills home to walk our dogs in Runyon Canyon which is a park located off Mulholland Drive. We will usually go early in the morning for a few hour hike and end up at their own house which is in the Hollywood Hills and have breakfast. Their neighbor can you believe it is Ryan Seacreast. I am waiting to run into him and his dogs someday. hehe The view from the park is really beautiful. YOu can see the entire city from the trails we hike. Not only is it fun for humans but for our furry pets. We usually let Mo off leash so he is able to wander free. It's good for his socializing. Yesterday one of my co-workers came with us with her dog, Winston. Mo and Winston had a ton of fun running around chasing each other. Because the park is so close to the Hollywood Hills another bonus of the park besides the exercise is that we often see celebrities walking their dogs. Yesterday when we walked we saw and talked to Kevin McKidd who plays Dr. Owen Hunt on Grey's Anatomy. My friend has a Springer Spaniel and he was walking three English Spring Spaniels with his girlfriend. We stopped and talked to them and he seemed very nice. Not to mention, I enjoyed the English accent. We also ran into another TV star who plays a doctor (I think on Private Practice or another hospital drama) on TV but for the life of me I can't remember her name. I see her in movies and TV all the time too. After our morning walk we were all very tired and took a nice nap.

Behind Door Number One

Have you ever watched those TV Game shows where they have a couple of doors and behind one is a grand prize? Well, this weekend the hub and I found out what was behind our Door #1. The hubby and I are starting the beginning phases of landscaping our backyard. Our first step, was to clean out the area behind our garage. When we moved in, there was about 2 feet of walking space behind our garage the rest of the area was covered in vines. Vines were growing on the roof and generally it was a mess. Not wanting the vines to take over the roof, we I started to clear out the vines last fall. But after we cut a million vines with only a pair of clippers we gave up and decided to clean out the rest in the spring. Spring came around and we didn't do much until one day when I was sick a few weeks ago, I ran into our gardener. I showed him the mess and asked if he knew of anyone who could come clean it out. I could tell he was actually, quite happy for me to broach the subject of ...

Surfing Goat Diary

We left the store and headed to the Surfing Goat Diary, again, this was a second trip for us but what was different this time is that we scheduled an hour long tour. Last time we arrive right before closing and were rushed. We spent a fair amount of time there exploring before the tour. We tried their cheesecake, we met the cats and dogs that roamed the place, we played in the playground, we pet and fed the baby goats that were penned up, and pursued the little store. Penny was eager to get her hands on the chocolate goat milk truffles. I must admit they did look good. I had my eyes on a t-shirt and a mug. Our tour started at 3:30pm that day and we met all the goats and learned all about the farm. But the most exciting part of the tour was getting the opportunity to milk the goats. Penny was quite a good milker. A friend later reminded me that Penny was breastfed (wink, wink). By the time the tour ended we were extremely hot. Maui was hot but also humid. We were ready to...

My Favorite Gourmet Trucks

As of last night, I have now tried 18 food trucks! Only 60 more to go! My friends, Krueger and Kristy joined me at 55 Degree Wine in Atwar Village to try the always busy Grilled Cheese Truck! I have run into the truck a few times now but something has always prevented me from trying their food. Mostly the really, really long lines!! This time the hour wait wasn't so bad with two girls to gossip with. By the time we got to the front we were ready to execute our food plan. Kristy took lead and placed an order for 3 sandwiches (the brie, the mac-n-cheese and the rib meat) plus the dessert sandwich and some tator tots!!! I was a bit bummed that they didn't have the sandwich I went for, the Harvest sandwich but the 3 sandwiches we got more than made up for everything. I was glad to try this truck with 2 girls because we split the sandiches in 3rds which was awesome because I got to try a variety of their sandwiches. Now I must add the Grilled Cheese Truck to my list of fa...
