wednesday market

24020021

i love farmers markets because they make for a wonderful combination of organic, locally grown food and beautiful flowers. the farmers market on wednesdays in santa monica is truly one of my favorite things about la. so much so that i’ve made over an hour and a half long trips just to go there. it is one of the biggest markets i’ve been to and on top of that, its great for people watching. you can always see chefs buying for their restaurants, florists with bundles of flowers and people with yoga mats grabbing produce after class. we found some yummy treats (post coming tomorrow) but the best part is experience walking around and seeing all the interesting and unusual foods, plants and other goodies. oh how i wish it was closer to home.

milo + olive

Photobucket

i tried milo + olive a few weeks back and it did not disappoint. i’m still dreaming about the delectable food. everything our group had was so delicious and the atmosphere is very intimate. its tiny inside and we had to wait for longer than expected but was well worth it. yet another restaurant in LA added to my ‘must go back’ list

sunday morning coffee

22850014

my friends and i have a tradition that every sunday before we go to church, we grab coffee up in LA, usually at intelligentsia in silverlake. i love the coffees here (especially the soy lattes), the latte art and their great selection of teas but what i love most is the beautiful building and ambiance. these mornings are some of my favorites and something i’m going to miss the most when i leave for new zealand.

new york revisited

83250025

i’ve been missing new york so much lately. of all the cities i’ve been to, new york city has got to be the one my heart gravitates towards the most. the more i go, the more i love it. when i was in 7th grade, i was blessed enough to spend two months on the upper east side for a ballet intensive and this past spring, i spent a week in greenwich village. here are some film pictures i took on my last visit to nyc.
