recap-tarts and flea markets

Sunday we got up to have brunch with Brian and his lovely lady at a family hotspot called Tart. Which is attached to the Farmer's Daughter, you may remember it from earlier blog entries as the place we like to stay. It has unfortunately become pretty expensive.

From Tart we went to the Melrose Trading Post to find some treasures, as recommended by the latest Lucky magazine. It was a hot day and for some reason trying on vintage clothes wasn't all that appealing, sorry Lucky. What was great was all of the jewelry, handmade and vintage. A lot of 1920's pieces a little too outside my price range and besides I had furniture on my mind.

We both walked away with some nice trinkets, me a star necklace and a vintage purple purse and mom a necklace and vintage pin that went so great with what she was wearing. I came home with some ideas for my small space.

I hear later that Taylor Swift had been there the same day we were. We didn't see her, but we had a great star sighting ourselves just after leaving the flea market. We hadn't seen anyone all weekend, which was strange for LA and this time of year. I thought it would be great to stop into Bristol Farm's for some French Macaroons, a bit of a snack before having mom try another gluten free pizza place, a favorite of mine. I also knew since it is one of the last grocery stores before hitting the canyon, that the probability of seeing someone was pretty likely and just when I thought that there wouldn't be, we saw Will Ferrell.

After the sighting it was more pizza, then home and a movie.
