.to do list.

So my "to do" list has been significantly changed in the last few weeks.  It now consists solely of things that will make me happy. 

No schoolwork.  No housework.  No studying.

Now it is only a list of indulgences and activities in Los Angeles that I either haven't yet done or that I enjoyed enough the first time around that I want to experience it again.

Here it is so far:

Activities

Griffith Observatory

Basketball game at Staples

Huntington Library

Beach

Charmlee Park

Poppies in Lancaster

Thai Elvis

Hollywood Cemetery Cinespia

LA river tour with Friends of LA River

Esotouric tour

Bob Baker Marionettes

Angel’s Flight

LA Zoo

Restaurants

Hatfield’s Tasting Menu- Best food I've ever had.  Hands down.

 U-zen sushi

The Corner Place- Korean cold noodle soup, so popular patrons can't take it "to go" for fear of the recipe being copied.

Bulgarini Gelato- We have a favorite gelato place (Pazzo) but this one is supposedly even better...I am dubious.

NBC Seafood- Dim Sum.

Animal- Lots of pork (this one is for the hubster).

Auntie Em’s- The best biscuits and gravy I've ever had.

El Parian- Goat stew.  I can't say that it sounds super appealing but I am curious.

Let’s Be Frank

Golden Triangle- Chinese food.  For reals Chinese food.

Pollo a la Brasa

Guelaguetza- Mole.  Ole!

Jitlada- Southern Thai food that is so hot it will cause fire to shoot out of your ears.

Kyochon- Korean fried chicken loaded with MSG (so I hear).

Park’s Barbecue- The best Korean bbq in K-town.

Pho Minh- Lines for pho so long that it is an hour wait time.

Tacos Baja Ensenada- Fish tacos.

Wurstkuche- The best french fries ever had...and the sausages aren't too shabby either.

Bibimbap at Gamja Bawi at K-Town plaza

Hainan chicken rice at Savoy Kitchen
