House Guests Who Beluga

This past week, we had some house guests. We don't get very many over nights guests so it was very exciting. In addition to washing the sheets, we had to make sure all the batteries were taken out of the clocks in the guest room :)

The San Diego Hinojosa's were in town for a training class the Mrs. had to attend in Glendale. After spending the day in Glendale I think we may have converted them to being LA Eastsiders. They seemed to discover what we discovered 4 years ago and that is the East Side is pretty cool. Perhaps if they ever come to LA we might be able to convince them to come over to "our side" as opposed to the Regul aka Westside.

We are currently working on Jung to move over here and if we can secure the Hinojosas, well, the East Side would just be livelier with Beluga references. You are probably like "Beluga" references? Let me stop and explain.

The 81st Street boys have taken to messaging each other daily or should I say hourly on the newly discover Beluga forum. Think AOL but like way cooler. Anyhoo the boys have created a pod and they chit chat back and forth having some really interesting conversations. And by interesting I mean they make my husband all giggly with delight.

Anyhoo, I am glad hubby has discovered his friends again who are now all spread out all over the place in the western portion of the United States. Maybe just maybe we will get them all to the East Side one day and they can carry out their conversations in person. But alas, that would just be too easy and being an adult is never easy, right?

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 ...

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...

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...
