eat.taste.live

Many of you know that last year I discovered I had a gluten allergy.  It hasn't been that bad avoiding gluten, especially since I feel so much better.  I am a girl who loves to eat, so I am excited to be a guest, along with actor Joel Bryant, on a new web show, eat. taste. live. with Chef Andrew Doyle.

You can watch us LIVE tomorrow at 11am PT/2pm ET at eat.taste.live

Tomorrow's menu looks amazing, too. Here is what he will be cooking and I will be eating for Episode 103:

Prague, Prague, and more Prague!

Did you know I am in Prague?  This country is amazing, gritty, majestic, and lovely.  I think I will let the photos today speak for themselves.  Enjoy!

A Hidden Gem

 Not bad, Steve Jobs, not bad....this photo was taken on my iPhone 4.

Would you believe this place exists amidst all of the chaos of Hollywood Boulevard? Hidden behind the famous intersection of Hollywood and Vine is the new restaurant, Wood and Vine.  It's a great place to sit back with a speciality cocktail like my very girly, Accomplice:  Rain Organic vodka, lemon juice, strawberry syrup, and champagne or something a little more manly for those of you into the dark booze drinks.  Head to the back to their cozy garden area with a fire pit, heat lamps, a cocktail, a taste of their chicken and waffles and the most divine thing on the menu:  Butterscotch Pot de Crème with Salted Caramel Ice Cream.  It's housed in the historic Taft Building which housed the original offices of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (The Oscar nerd in me just squealed!) and Charlie Chaplin.

Wood and Vine:  6280 Hollywood Boulevard, Hollywood

A Fashionista Extravaganza

It's no secret that I love my local store, Roni B.  If you have followed my blog for awhile,  you know she has dressed me from head to toe for events and shoots here, here, and here.  Well, I am excited to be hosting A Fashionista Extravaganza on Tuesday, November 30th with Roni B.  It will be a night of fashion, fun, food, wine, and a dash of charity.  Guests are encouraged to bring their gently used business casual and professional attire to donate to The Valley Women's Center.  So, clean out your closet and maybe add an item or two or grab a snazzy holiday gift.

If you would like an invite and you are in the LA area, contact me to be added to the list.  It will be a fun night on the fashion front!
