Five Things

{My favorite spot for chips/margaritas by the beach at dusk}

In the same way that I like to stay in during colder months and nest, summer should be all about getting out and exploring. Today my friend and I are taking the day off and exploring a new restaurant downtown, then heading into Claremont (my beloved college town) for the afternoon, and finishing the evening at Grace Potter's concert. It'll be a nice kickoff to an adventurous weekend revolving around food - continuing our taco tour of L.A. and heading out to the San Gabriel Valley for dim sum.
