California in a Flash...

This past weekend the three of us Grumps boarded a plane and headed west for L.A.  Yes it is a long ways for a such a short trip but it was worth it.  The real reason we went was that my sister was able to get us tickets to the Bethenny Frankel Show.  I have to admit it was a lot of fun.  Bethenny is absolutely beautiful and is a genuinely sensitive person.  We were able to sit front row center.  If you are in her viewing area our show airs tomorrow July 12.

Before the show we had a fabulous lunch at Larchmont Bungalow.  Larchmont is an Artisan Cafe'.  It was so good I couldn't leave there with out a few pictures of our food. 

My little sister has the "Best of both Worlds".  Yes that was the name of it, its both pancakes and french toast.  Just in case you are feeling indecisive. 

This was my glorious plate of food.  I chose the Curry Lobster and Shrimp Wrap.  Heaven in my mouth is what it should have been called.  The side salad with balsamic was just as good.  But anything with candied walnuts is good right? 

After the long day at the Bethenny show we met up with our husbands in Venice, CA.  It was First Fridays, when all the food trucks come out for the First Friday of the month.  My husband and I LOVE food trucks.  Its one of our favorite things to find in a city.  I was overwhelmed by the amount of trucks that showed up.  We chose the Lobster truck and had lobster bisque and lobster rolls.  They did not disappoint and the prices were very reasonable.  We also choose the Trailer Park truck where we indulged in Macaroni Grilled cheese, and Frito Pie.  The Frito Pie was made right in the Frito bag.  YUMMMMMMMMMM!!!! 

The best part I have to admit of the entire trip was that we were able to wear a sweater each morning and each night.  The temperature was a nice departure from the 113 we left behind in Oklahoma a few weeks ago. 

Can anyone find Jamie?  Oh there he is hiding behind me.  I give him a hard time about not sitting up straight in pictures.  This is him "trying" to be funny.  By the way five minutes after this we had to leave because he was freezing.  In July?!  Yes.  It was so nice.
