This Little Piggy

Yesterday was spent reminiscing on the previous night's festivities, which included my first AMF and a bunch of dancing that would later equal out all the lazy Sunday munching. Oh, silly justification.

After a good old fashioned pig out session at Mr. Cecil's Ribs, the rest of the day flew by watching the Goonies for the first time (shocking I know) and rooting for my favorite team (Jeff & Jordan) on The Amazing Race.

Pizza Lovin'

I'm always on a mission to find a great pizza place, and I definitely found one in Lucifer's in Los Feliz. The best part about it is their inclusion of hot sauce on the pie. You choose the level of hotness and a pizza on the menu. We chose the Pepperoni Ultimo that includes pepperoni, red onion, green bell pepper, sliced pineapple, buffalo hot sauce and arugula.

Doesn't that make your mouth water?

Out and About: Tujunga Village

Living in this city is great for many reasons, but my favorite is that I am constantly finding new places that I love. I guess that goes right along with living in any new place, right? By "new places" I don't just mean a shop or restaurant. I'm referring to these quaint neighborhoods hidden in between busy streets. Out and about the other day, my boyfriend and I came upon one by the name of Tujunga Village.

It's a one block stretch of vintage stores, little shops, and cafe's tucked in between adorable houses just like this one. The houses had the most amazing flowers. I was tempted to pick a lot of them, but refrained out of the fear of being caught. I could have collected a great bouquet.

Before walking the neighborhood, this served as the setting for our lunch date. I ordered a Humble Salad (the name was better than the dish). The picture shows a much more delicious choice, the grilled chicken sandwich with pesto and sun dried tomatoes. Do you think there's a disorder for constantly wanting what the other person at your table is eating? Cause I have it....food envy.

I know there's tons of little gems like this one, it's only a matter of time before I come across another...I'd love any suggestions!
