wednesdays in L.A.

So, my mother and I planned a trip to downtown LA's fashion district in search of some wholesale yarn stores, or any yarn store. What did we find? A crap-load of fabric, shop after shop full of all types of fabric, but no yarn. I'm still trying to find a good place to purchase bulk quantities of yarn, but as of now I'll continue to buy from my current supplier, (though they refuse to return my calls and e-mails when I have a problem with my orders from them). As for today, we decided to go out for lunch in LA and then head over to Santa Monica for some shopping and a walk on the pier.

Veggie Pesto Panini at the LA Cafe - it was delicious 

Bought a few balls of yarn in Santa Monica - Coral is one of my favorite colors!

Whether you're traveling to Los Angeles or need a break from the busy city, the Getty is always a nice place to visit. The architecture itself is one of the most beautiful exhibits. Also, it's free! You just have to pay for parking if you show up in a car.

I've been looking for more fun and adventurous things to do in my area and the areas around me, and though LA isn't the closest of cities to me, there are tons of things to do there and plenty of museums which are always fun and easy to find.
