It was just a whisper.
Needtobreathe Concert at Musicbox from Jennie Palluzzi on Vimeo.
Friday night I went with my friend R to see Needtobreathe.
*****
They were amazing.
*****
Something beautiful.
Last night, Corelyn and Melissa came over. Corelyn and I blogged. We were finishing up our little project.

I made baked ziti for dinner. I pulled out a cookbook (not PW) and modified based on what I had in my kitchen (only one egg, less than half a container of ricotta, you get the picture.) I used a log of mozz.
*****
No one took a photo. No fanfare. No frills. Just baked ziti.
*****
It was still beautiful.

It was ready in 25 minutes. It fed three of us. More than half was left for this week’s lunches. And for dinner tonight.
*****
Tonight I ate leftovers. Half a brick of brie. A handful of grapes. Three stalks of celery.

Break time. Holiday time.
I love LA, OR: Why I don’t take the highway home…
Last night after being at J, B, and E’s for a bit, I took Santa Monica Blvd home. This way goes through a lot of LA neighborhoods, and thus I saw, in no particular order:
a building (an entire 12 story-plus building) wrapped like a Christmas tree; an city block of Beverly Hills decorated with scenes of Christmas; a building lighted to look like it was snowing; the whole of West Hollywood decked to the nines, including a hopping Wednesday-night party scene, and glowing neon lights at every block; more than five burger restaurants (not fast food ones, either); a woman putting her eye-liner on while waiting at a light; a crashed car lit up with a sign saying “Do Not Drive Drunk” above it in front of the West Hollywood Police Department; a myriad of houses with Christmas trees shining through their front windows.
Happy Christmas, LA.
Building wrapped as a present…
Whew! You made it!
Friends, Family, Strangers;
I see you’ve made it to my new digs. Like the snow? I do, too. I’ll be updating more soon, but first I want to make sure no one gets lost along the way!
xo.
