Magnolia House in Pasadena (A Year Later)
Magnolia House was dark. Not the creepy, “who just touched my elbow” dark. More like the “I’ve had a long day and the dimness of this place is relaxing my life” dark. It was exactly what I needed. As my body began to calm down from work and traffic, I took a moment to walk
Comoncy in Studio City
Every now and then I get into a breakfast slump. The kind of slump where I’m so uninterested in breakfast that I would rather sleep through the birds chirping, ignore my stomach growling, and simply roll out of bed in time for lunch. The other day, I planned to bypass breakfast altogether until my foodie
Tom’s Urban in Downtown Los Angeles
Heidi: Danielle! Guess what I got! Me: Two tickets to paradise? Heidi: No, I got— Me: Hit on by a cop? Heidi: Danielle, no. I— Me: Oh god, you have webbed feet don’t you? Look, I’m sure they can cut little slices in between your toes and– Heidi: DANIELLE! Poor Heidi was eager to tell
Status Kuo in Mar Vista
When it comes to restaurants, my favorite type are the small ones that know how to make use of their space. I like them so much because the intimate space can evoke conversation and they can feel homey. Aside from conversation and comfort, what I love most is seeing a restaurant that is small in

Bombo in Downtown LA
I know that I’m fat on the inside, and kind of on the outside too. But last week, my fatness reached a new level as I encountered my own fat sense. It’s like a Spidey sense, but it doesn’t have a cool costume or web slinging abilities. Instead, it’s an ability to know that something
Aventine Hollywood in Hollywood
There’s a beauty in the city of Hollywood that people don’t always see. It’s often goes unnoticed because of all the people trying to “make it” in the city of flashing lights. You’ve experienced it: the so-called writer handing out his screenplay on the sidewalk or the CVS cashier who breaks out into Whitney Houston’s
dine L.A.’s Restaurant Week: Il Fornaio
dine L.A.’s Restaurant Week ended yesterday, so this post comes just after the foodie fun. But since I love food and you love food—being tardy really shouldn’t matter. During the event, my boyfriend TJ and I went to a spot that was a big hit on our Restaurant Week list because of their extravagant menu at
