71 and Sunny.
This, my friends, is why I love living in Los Angeles. Despite the fact that today it is pretty cloudy and I am still waiting for the afternoon sun to kick in, I am looking forward to a perfect week. During this perfect week I plan to dive into my running again, make a recipe for the Garlic, My Soul blog, finish my book club book and attend a meeting in which we will speak minimally about the book, and more about boys, friends, and Glee (some things never change.)
This weekend was quite relaxing, including an entire afternoon lounging in Malibu.
“So what are you doing?” My dad asked.
“I’m at a winery in Malibu, drinking wine and hanging out,” I told him.
“Of course you are,” he said.
Mary, thanks for making another birthday event awesome! I love your May birthday, what a great excuse to drink wine! Here are some choice photographs.
Mary and her red velvet cupcakes!

Present time!
Jeff and Rebecca hiding away.
Jeff obviously goofing off...
I have no idea what is happening in this photograph, but I love it anyways.
Jen so excited about her wine. Note the men at the birthday party behind her...
And make you cry love, cry out loving…
…dance drunken to your hearts beat…

******Here we go, gliding into another fabulous weekend. Last night, I attempted to communicate with my BFF Lauren, but failed due to forgetfulness and laundry. She is headed to Paul Simon, from what I gather. Who I love more than anything. Luckily, Jeff set our boom box in the bedroom to play music from our iPhones (because he has mad skills like that) so I settled in after folding laundry for an evening of Paul singing to me. Delightful.
Last night Jeff also realized the depth of my Paul love, which apparently had gone silent for the past 4 and a half years. Well, anyways, now he knows, and knows I will love him forever and always, and anyone who disagrees with me on that point can skedaddle out of my purview.
Things are looking up, this weekend, which includes: making red velvet cupcakes tonight with Rebecca, a wine-induced picnic at Malibu’s Saddlerock tomorrow, birthday fun included, a housewarming party that will continue the fun tomorrow night, and a Sunday of relaxing, and maybe a date hike in Malibu. Packed with fun (and sun, finally, finally has returned to LA!) I literally cannot wait for a busy-yet-relaxed weekend in LA.
Here’s a photo from last year’s wine adventure…
That's some water...towards the end of our adventure...
Don't get all crazy, there were like 20 of us. Or...14. So, not unreasonable, we swear!
The lady-friends.
Isn't my bf handsome?
Here’s to another year of fun, and an excellent afternoon to celebrate…
