And just like that, it’s Monday again. At least it’s a holiday, right? I had such a lovely weekend jumpin’ ’round town with my husband. We’ve been traveling and event hopping non stop so it was nice to get some laid back time alone and take it easy. We hit up a couple of our favorite spots for drinks Saturday and had dinner at a new(ish) restaurant in Santa Monica called Local Kitchen & Wine Bar (sister restaurant of Thyme Cafe & Market next door). If you’re in the area-I highly recommend it. It’s casual edgy vibe with bits of brick, white subway tiles and concrete floors are a great place for a romantic night out or a group din with friends. The outdoor patio is super cozy and the music sets a spicy yet chillaxed vibe. We sat at the wine bar (our fave spot in restaurants!) and munched on delicious truffle infused arancini while we sipped Justin Cab and waited on our entrees including tender malfatti pasta, roasted cauliflower and calamari to name a few. Oh, and a little banana budino for a sweet ending…talk about Heaven in a jar! We spent Valentines Day walking around town restaurant hopping for breakfast and lunch…and then kept it easy with dinner at BareBurger (great build-your-own burger spot)!. We ended it with Kippy’s Ice Cream-an organic, non-dairy ice cream shop now on Main Street-I’d never tried dairy free ice cream (I’m usually all about the real deal) but it was amazing! I got the date flavor while he got the coco-honey. We have so many ice cream shops near us it was fun to add yet another to our rotating list! I’m entering husband birthday mode today-lots of fun plans ahead the next week. What are you up to?
