Cheap Eats

Cha Cha Cha ~ 20th Birthday ~ Silverlake

I’m a globetrotting, pen and ink loving LA woman doused in honey but oh so very raw, raunchy at my finest, and certainly straight up. I’m just as likely to quote Theodore Dreiser—&#8221;The old melancholy of desire&#8221;—as I am to rap to some Khia and tell you what to do to my neck and back. Of course, I love tacos. My mom still makes the best I’ve ever had. Actually, there was that one time in Mexico City that my stance on this matter nearly changed, but I got car sick and threw up in my cousin’s 1987 VW bug, so that taco de carnitas did not seem so tasty on the way out. Here’s to life: L’chaim!

Safari Sam’s ~ Opening Party ~ Hollywood

I&#8217;m stranger in a strange land. A San Francisco native, born and bred, I&#8217;m now living in Los Angeles in Los Feliz and loving it. I sell furniture by day and explore LA when I&#8217;m not doing that.
