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.

Happy Mother's Day and What I Wore Sunday...

 Any day I can spend with my boys is special but going to Mass together is extra special. I had a wonderful weekend. I also helped raise money for Women's cancer research doing EIF Revlon Run/Walk
 Whenever I look at this picture I think how blessed I am.

Teacher Appreciation Luncheon

 It's Teacher Appreciation week again. As always at my son's elementary school the PTA hosted a lunch for the hard working teachers. This year our theme was an English Picnic. We filled the library with simple flowers and bunting made of paper.

 Colored Mason Jar bouquet  
Keeping with the bunting theme we wrote the names of the food on banners.

Skateworld

 Over the weekend we had a skate party for my birthday. It was SO much fun! 


 D was just showing off.
 D took this picture of my sister and me and I love it…Something about putting on a pair of skates makes you feel 13 again.
I wanted to showcase how rad my sister looked at the rink!
