Breaking News: CNN is reporting that a  Suspect  has been arrested in Boston Marathon bombing
There is a Silver Lining to the Boston Marathon Tragedy. CNN is reporting that a suspect has been arrested in the Boston Marathon bombing (read story http://www.cnn.com/2013/04/17/us/boston-blasts/index.html).
 
On a side note we have a friend she ran the Boston Marathon a few times but this year her and her husband went to New York City for the weekend and she did not run. Ironically the last time we saw them. We went out to dinner with them to the Forum Restaurant on 755 Boylston St … (17 comments)

 Reflecting on this Tragedy at the Boston Marathon in Boston, MA
My heart and prayers goes out to the injured and their families in Boston, MA. Hope the healing will start soon and the perpetrators are speedily caught, so justice could be served!

We are always so busy with our day to day lives that we seldom truly reflect, unless there is a Tragedy in our lives, such as a family member or a friend, or someone we know who had something tragic happen to them. Then again there are catastrophes around the country and around the world which make … (17 comments)

M-TV Awards 2013 in Culver City, CA Sony Studios is the home of the M-TV Awards!
 
I was just returning home from a showing in Century City. I love to take the fast  and easy short cut to Marina Del Rey, CA. If you are a local you know I am referring to Culver Blvd. It is better than taking the Freeway.
 
Needless to say this took my by Sony Studios in Culver City. I was wondering why where there so many young under 20 some people in line that went around two three sides of the Studio? Well … (8 comments)

Life in a day of a Realtor representing Investors in the Greater Los Angeles Real Estate Market!
 
In case you have not heard Investors are out in droves in the West Los Angeles area. I have been knee deep in trying to get investment properties for my clients. The only propeties that make financial sense are the homes that you can buy and either tear down or somehow do an addition.

endre barath: 5620 Tuxedo Terrace, Los Angeles, CA 90068 another Vacant Lot SOLD!! - 04/10/13 06:34 PM
5620 Tuxedo Terrace Los Angeles, CA 90068 SOLD! A thirty day ALL CASH Escrow became a 40 Day Esc row, because not only did this vacant land fall into Los Angeles Hillside Ordinance, but in addition this lot fell into the Los Feliz Oaks Design Review Board. Hence buyer and Architect needed to check with both organizations of the feasibility of building.

I represented the buyer in this instance and not the seller of this great Vacant Lot. As you can see from the pictures it has a fantastic 180 degree view from City to Canyon. The best part is … (24 comments)

Kale: loved by many, feared by some, where do you stand? I love the Lacinato Kale
Over the years I have read a lot about the benefits of eating Kale. Interestingly it has been one of my staple side dishes at the dinner table. I have always loved using this edible food as Decoration at the Thanksgiving Dinners and then the following day adding a new twist to the leftover Turkey. I have been a Kale fan when it was not cool, hip or trendy, so I am thrilled now it is becoming a more popular dish on the dinner table.

Red Sox: TWO    Yankees:  ZERO @ Yankee Stadium of all places!
Ok In all fairness I understand that Baseball Season is long and things can change in a heartbeat. I also understand that this is what the the Doctor ordered for Red Sox Nation. After the dismal performance under the poor leadership of Bobby Valentine (who is now Athletic Director of Sacred Heart University in Fairfield, CT) the Red Sox have a 2 and 0 victory over the Evil Empire!

Yes I hear the excuses, A ‘Rod is injured, Teschera is injured, Jeter is injured….yes these are acceptable excuses if … (12 comments)

New Couch ,  no New Sofa Bed: whose is it? It’s my CouchJ! No their Sofa Bed!
The other day Diane decided to get rid of the old Couch and get a new one. Not only is it a Sofa it is a Bed too. Keep in mind; she wanted the best, since we are expecting visits from friends and her father during the year. She did not want to put them in a Guest Suite near, where we live; rather she preferred her father and our friends to stay with us.

So after a detailed internet research and personal … (22 comments)

So I parked my car and look what a surprise I foundJ  Turns out this car is more than just a normal Classic Car. It is totally electronic; there are no Door Handles, just amazing the old and the new reinvented.

Los Angeles, CA Classic Car moments around town.
 
I am a big fan of classic cars. Unlike Jay Leno, the host of the Tonight Show, I cannot afford to buy classic cars, nor can I afford to store them. All I can afford is to take pictures of them and share them with you on the internetJ!
 
Now with that said, I was going to Trader Joes in Westchester, CA the other day, (the home of the Los Angeles International Air Port) as I pulled into the parking lot look what I found. I had to share with … (25 comments)

“…Hi this is Baiser Grimmett how I may help you...” Sounds like a West Los Angeles Law Firm. Not really this is an Iconic Automobile Repair Shop that has received a New Life.

VCA had a Grand Opening Style Open House at their New West LA Facility!
As most of you know Diane & I support Rescue Organizations and we have a soft spot for not just our pets, but  for all animals. So with that said Diane was trying to make sure that our pets have all the medicine & food at home, since she is going to Boston for few days.

So after we left the Santa Monica Art Walk she wanted us to go by the two different Veterinary Hospitals to pick up the medicine at (ASAC which stands for Animal … (14 comments)

This is such a luxurious feast and still an easy meal to prepare,( you will be glad you tried it). The meal is light because we  are not using potatoes nor rice. Then on top, nothing is fried, everything is steamed and baked.
Most of the flavors are natural, hardly any … (11 comments)

March 15, 2013 better known as: The Ides of March!
If you are a student of ancient history, then you would know that The Ides of March is considered as March 15th. Most people know this, because of William Shakespeare’s Play Julius Caesar. I have always enjoyed world history and particularly Roman History. Well for those of you who were dozing thru history classes, just as a quick reminder.

Julius Caesar was assassinated in front of the Statue of Pompey on March 15th 44BC. If you read about the Roman calendar you would discover  that ' The Ides ‘ is generally … (19 comments)
