The Pie Hole Los Angeles

While in Los Angeles for EIF Revlon Run/Walk we went to The Pie Hole.

 Savory or sweet all the pies we tried were delicious! I normally would pick cake over pie any day but this place has given me a change of heart. $6 seems like a lot of money for a slice of pie but it really is that good. If you want a whole pie you have to order it 48 hours in advance.
 Maple custard
This was my favorite one. I could eat an entire pie. I had it with a hot cup of tea. It's very sweet but the maple flavor isn't to strong, it's just right. 
 Mexican Hot Chocolate pie
This pie was super rich the chocolate had a hint of cinnamon.  
This is a savory pie…it is filled with mac & cheese! It had a yummy flakey outside and the mac wasn't soggy inside. I don't know how they did it. We also had the veggie curry pie. I am glad there isn't a Pie Hole in San Diego because it would be dangerous!

EIF Revlon Run/Walk

 The Revlon Run/Walk for Women takes place around the USC campus. It ends inside the Coliseum.

 Have you heard of HipAppeal? It's a hipper fanny pack. The Hip Appeal has no buckle or snaps. It slips on over your workout pants. It is awesome. I did a 5k and the Hip Appeal didn't move. It has a pocket in the front and one in the back. Perfect for keys and a your phone. It's a local company out of Carlsbad, CA. The Hip Appeal fanny pack is made in the USA.

UNIQUE LA Spring Show

While my friend, Kristina and I were in Los Angeles for the EIF Revlon Run we went to a market. The unique LA's Spring Show. It was part craft fair, Art show, part local LA sellers and ALL hipster! It was near the fashion district on the 16th floor of a building. I wish I had an unlimited budget because there were lots of one of a kind jewelry and posters. It was a fun day of shopping but boy are my legs tired.
 Kristina got this chevron bow
 These were little shadow boxes. I wanted one but where would I put it??
 I'm going to eat you, cupcake.
 This scarf was so cool! However we both agreed it is a little heavy duty for So Cal. 
 That's a lot of alligator.
This is the canvas tote we got from UNIQUE LA.
state of unique has shows in New York and San Francisco.
If your in Los Angeles today you should check it out!

Revlon Run 2013!

 I think we need to wear pink this year. 
Stacy Keibler, Halle Berry and Mario Lopez were 2012 celebrity ambassadors.
I am getting ready for EIF Revlon Run/Walk in Los Angeles. It is a month away and I need to start hitting the pavement! If you want to get involved or just find out more information you can visit EIF Revlon Run/Walk My friend, Kristina and I had a blast Last year raising money for women's cancer. After 9 years doing this I think we should have a team name I am not sure yet what celebrities will be there this year. Emma Stone and Olivia Wilde will be at the NYC race.
