we didn’t hide colored eggs for the kids. we got them up, dressed and headed out to LA. our first stop was at Yoshinoya on the corner of melrose & vermont.
mmm yummy easter lunch! after that we cruised on melrose to see what stores were open, nothing really caught our eye so we headed up to sunset to hit Meltdown. they changed the layout since we last visited months ago and i prefer it so much more. it’s much roomier and you can see the displays better. the kids had fun playing on the rodys. C & i picked up the hi-fructose box set. it’s a beauty. the 5 prints alone are worth the cost ($39.95) – i’m planning on doing a review in the next couple weeks. 2 things were depressing: looks like the secret base display cabinet is gone?! and that i didn’t have crazy money to blow.
but what we really went to LA for is SCOOPS. turns out they were closed which we kinda expected. it’s ok, they deserve a holiday lol not wanting to go back home we went to check out the idiot box show at gallery 1988. it was a really good show. all the pieces were fantastic!!!
