I swear, I should live in LA for how many events I end up attending in the area! Last weekend, we went to the Artisanal LA expo, this weekend, the Gluten Free Expo, and day after tomorrow, Mark and I will be going to a concert at the Disney Concert Hall. Since I’m a smidgen behind in posting, ahem, I will first share photos from last weekend. Artisanal LA is a collection of vendors selling everything from pickled veggies to freshly charred s’mores to vintage dresses and potted succulents. We picked up several goodies, like spicy green beans, ancho chili and tamarind sauce, small-batch chocolates, and of course, I grabbed a couple of things from the vintage clothing pop-up shop. Below, some highlights from the show…
The handsome boyfriend and I. I wanted to wear something spring-y but super comfy knowing that we would be walking for a significant part of the day.
It was pretty awesome watching our s’mores being made. I seriously want to own a brulee torch now.
OMG. So good. The one on the right.. has bacon!
Gorgeous, simple bouquets.
A table full of bliss.
A little shoefie, stopping off at Anthropologie. No purchases were made here, but my eyes were darting everywhere at the thought of 20% off all dresses!
Next stop was the Farmer’s Market. Being faced with the difficult decision of where to eat, we finally decided on The Gumbo Pot, a creole spot serving up gumbo, jambalaya, and my pick, softshell crab po boys. For dessert, we had to try the beignets, which unfortunately, were not as fluffy as I prefer so we decided to give the other two to an adorable older couple who were sitting next to us. They seemed to enjoy them! 😀
