California Girls

Three years ago our bookclub ladies went to see the play Wicked in California. We decided to go again this year to see Beauty and the Beast. (You know how wild bookclub ladies can get).

We shopped on Rodeo drive (Let's be honest, we window shopped). We ate at the Staples Center so my friends could watch the BYU basketball game.

Once again, Susan Glad's dad treated us to a nice seafood dinner near Newport Beach. He's a fun,  fiesty older man that loves to shock us bookclub ladies (such as when he kissed me on the lips last year). This year I held a picture of fake lips over my lips just to trick him.

To top it off, we all went to Dineyland! It was a unique experience because everyone was a good sport and stayed until midnight. They respected the Disneyland dictator's (that's me) rules.

I would travel with these ladies anytime. We had a great time. Onto the next adventure!

Elena's Kitchen Tips 101

Message for today: Don't do dishes today that can be put off until tomorrow!


Did you know that Tang can be used as a cleaner? You bet it can. I even throw a little bit in the dishwasher for a little extra oomph!

Oh and crock pots are great! (I just refuse to clean them) ;)
Stay tuned for more of Elena's tips!
