Pizza Magic.


So one night I was hanging at the house and was thinking about dinner I had whole wheat pizza dough and no tomatoes fresh or canned... hmmmmmmm I had zucchini and parsley from my garden... mushrooms goat cheese and walnuts.... I was thinking I could try to do a balsamic/ garlic oil sauce??!! it was worth a try.... GEEEEZ IT WAS SOOOO GOOD!! try it sometime!!

2 med zucchinis
mini portabella mushrooms
parsley
goat cheese
walnuts
whole wheat pizza dough
balsamic vinegar
garlic infused olive oil

Saute zucchini and mushroom for about 5 mins put to the side

roll out dough sprinkle oil and vinegar over pizza, sprinkle all the ingredients all over the pizza as much as you would like bake in the oven as directed on the pizza dough!! enjoy!! I did

Perfect example of what a crappy photographer I am.... clearly the arrow tattoo I didn't take and of course the out of focus gypsy girl head I did...

Turnball Canyon bike ride

Whittier California... just a few miles away from Long Beach... in fact just a bike ride away, I didn't even know this Canyon was so close!! This was my first time riding my bike on a long climbing ride... Not only was it fun, it was just beautiful!!! I'm proud to live here and I think this is a great start to a bike riding!!

I'm in looove!!!


As all of you 39 followers most like know, I did a Triathlon... well it's kinda turned into something else.. sure I'm going to do more BUT, I really started to bike more and it is FUN!! Had a nice old ass bike and had to upgrade... That's another story, I think it was harder than
buying a car!! Soo This is my new bike "Max" we are in love!!! Just took him out for his first long ride to Turnball Canyon.. it was hard and so fun!!!

Things I miss... Tea Space, Atlanta


It was hard to find picture of this place.... I wish I had my own personal ones to post... I think this place opened in 2002ish, It was this super cool little tiny restaurant in Little 5 points that was for sure the first place that sold Boba (we thought it was bubble tea) and PBR and Asian fusion food?? yes I said PBR... it was truly awesome... daytime Boba tea night time Black Rice balls and PBR, but the best part of this place was the clever design!!! It was sooooo Japanese well designed and very very cool and on a budget... Many a good lady date with my friend Melissa, we would go to a Art show and feel even more arty and finish the night at Tea Space!!! Sadly it close some years later.... ahhhh the good times.

Not the hipsters or the gays....

As much as I would like to think that it's just old people, hipsters and gays in PS, that is not true, I have normal clients I tattoo that go to PS??? where on earth do they go!!! I HAD no idea until now.... On our list of bars to check out, the Rivera's bar was one of them... We didn't stay long.. not because it was gross or dumb or whatever but we just were not feeling it. The hotel was jaw dropping beautiful and the feel.....the design... the pool wow wow that is one hell of a hotel!!!! was worth the walk in and looky and walk out! Went to the bar and everyone was straight and normal (like no tattoos or fancy mustache etc etc) ooooo that is where they are..... hmmmm

Melvyn's

Next stop.... Melvyn's... Renee found magazine in our hotel room that listed some cool bars in PS, this one was interesting.... and OH SO AWESOME!!! it is old and I think it had a hay day in the 60's and maybe the 80's but it's super!! Cocktail waitresses are 55 and up and in fancy dresses, the bar/restaurant in attached to a hotel, but the place is soooo funny and formal but not... I think they have to have Beef Wellington and Baked Alaska on the menu... and you have to drink a old man drink, maybe a Side Car or a Harvey Wallbanger!! Just Go it great and the entertainment..... you'll see.

Palm Spring continued....

So Renee and I started our ladies night out at this O so fab restaurant called The Tropicale, it was awesome!! We walked in and the whole place of full of Hot Gay Men, someone shouted "Shoe Whore" ahhhhhh just as I had planned!! Yes I pick out my shoes to impress gay men... soo???? Food is good drinks are fun, please go!!

Another Caliente picture

Caliente Tropics Hotel

Ahhhh Palm Spring full of wonderful fancy and trendy hipster hotel, and of course mid century modern perfect hotels.... this is not one of any of them, this is the hotel that could... Now I'm not bashing this hotel the rooms are clean and the bed are very nice, the design is super cool and it's CHEAP!!! It could be so much more!! and they are trying!!! My gal pal and I had a lovely stay at this dog friendly hotel, $100 bucks a night on a Sat so I'm thinking less than that on the weekdays! They are vamping up the lobby and making a restaurant/bar that I would love to see one day. I've stay at this hotel a few times and have to complaints at all in fact stay here and pay the 10 bucks to go to the Ace Hotels pool only 100 feet away! save yourself $100 a night!
