Oh, yea! Happy Friday! Here are my faves of the week…
1. I got to lunch with a real woman of mystery yesterday, Gianna (grad school buddy). We met at Cecconi’s in West Hollywood (her suggestion). Think swanky blue velvet seating with ironic glasses, surrounded by exclusive sky-high hedges and valet attendants who wear expensive cologne (I still smell it on my seatbelt). Enjoy the marble tables and $97 white truffle pizza (which is apparently to die for says Gianna…I will never know).
Look at her ridiculously cool hat. An older gentleman (with an interesting accent) even came over to our table to get close to her and shower her with compliments. I was a sidekick.
Gianna is someone you just want to spend your time around. You ration your questions so you appear cool.
(Sidenote: Just found out that Gianna’s 95 year old grandmother passed yesterday. Prayers for her and her family.)
P.S. Please disregard “ball cap dude” in background. He is killing my swanky atmosphere promises. It’s the beauty of California-anything goes.
2. This cute little lunch/snack for Chris: Apples, carrots, peanut butter and falafel. I’ve gotta keep him from El Torrito and food cart grenade (work adjacent) temptations!
3. Returning to this glorious sunshine from Seattle. Here’s a photo of LAX while we wait for our parking structure shuttle. My four-days-in-rainy-vampire-Seattle-mole-eyes were barely squinting open. 
4. One of my favorite Christmas ornaments:
If I’m not eating, I’m dreaming, web surfing or talking food.
5. I was super excited to share the news about our baby on the way! Is it bad that I was so excited to tell so I could post things about babies on the blog (i.e. baby room layouts)?
5.1 My sister is a new account exec (sales) at a start-up and she is KILLING it at work!
Have a wonderful weekend and enjoy yourselves!
