W/E 7/31/11






























My mom came to LA this weekend for a visit and I didn't end up taking a lot of photos. We did some shopping, got Thai massages and ate some delicious food. We went to visit my brother in his neighborhood of Highland Park, which I haven't spent much time in. He took us to a really delicious Mexican restaurant called El Arco Iris that I am already craving again. After lunch at El Arco we walked next door to an old shop called Galco's. It is a huge old soda pop shop! They had so many interesting and unique kinds of soda, beer, candy and water! They do online orders and they will ship your soda to you. My mom put together a case and they are shipping it to her now. 

After dropping my mom off at the airport, we spent the afternoon in Santa Monica. We were preparing for a juice fast the following week which required us to eat a vegan diet so we had dinner at Real Food Daily. I was so hungry that I forgot to take a picture of my vegan tacos, but I did snap a picture of the delicious chocolate tart. The vegan whip cream was really super yummy and dairy free!
