Spamalot!

My family and I had the pleasure of attending a performance of Spamalot on Sunday evening at the Ahmanson Theatre at L.A.'s Music Center! I was happy to be able to take The Boy here -- I have fond memories of going to shows here with my mom when I was a youngster. She took a girlfriend and me to see the first national tour of The Wiz in 1976! So awesome.

Anyhoo, we started with dinner in Burbank.

Our performance featured John O'Hurley of Seinfeld fame. I'm sorry to say he was a little disappointing -- seemed to be kinda "phonin' it in". But the rest of the cast was good, the show was fun, and, perhaps most importantly, The Boy LOVED it.

Now -- go away, or I will taunt you a second time!

Dinner with LFarm in the Atwater

I had the distinct privilege of dining on Friday evening with the beautiful internet sensation, Lauren Farmer. We opted to go to Canelé, a delightful establishment in the Atwater Village section of Los Angeles. It was just the kind of classy place you'd expect to find a couple of awesome brunettes such as ourselves.

As you can see from these photographs, Canelé is a lovely eatery in a beautiful section of the city. However, out front was this weird hobo in a plaid shirt from JCPenney (I know this because he showed me the tag inside while describing his 'vintage' hobo shirt in detail -- a common hallmark of the insane). He insisted on horning in on my photo session with Lauren.

After this I think he got Lauren to go to a concert with him, despite my protestations. (He was kinda cute for a hobo.)

Eat at Canelé if you can. Despite this zany blog post, in all seriousness -- THEIR. FOOD. IS. THE. BOMB.
