I was there with Dolce W. helping on set with a short film. We were there helping and learning all the different terms of the equipment. It was a good time. Though I didn't get any gelato, which I definitely regret now. The gelato looked really good.

Another of Lauren's coffee places is a house with couches and all. We were sitting there and were experiencing the awkwardness of a blind date next to us. It was an enjoyable time.

Steve J. picked up food from here for us today. It was great: a chicken and a half with garlic sauce, hummus, and tomatoes. Great "cafeteria" style food.

Bean-ish

This is a blog of the places I'll be visiting and what I did there. To start this thing off:

Bean Town
45 N Baldwin Ave
Sierra Madre, CA 91024
(626) 355-1596

I went with Lauren M. and Emily M. at 10am and left around 2pm. I was doing research all day to buy a car. It was a really nice place except for the "crazy dream" soundtrack that they were playing most of the time that we were there. Too bad they didn't have more relaxing music.


Barney's Beanery

Pasadena, CA 91105

After working 8 hours toward the first car I own. We went to go play pool and had a few drinks. Barney's happy hour from 4-7pm (M-F) had $3 draft beers and half off a select menu of appetizers. We got the chicken fingers and the fried zucchini which I thought both were awesome. They had this spacious upper level with a bunch of pool tables. I'm not sure on this one, but I think there was free pool from 6-9pm. Other than the load of space, two other things to note about the upper level: 1. there was one room with just couches and a coffee table that seemed really fun to hang and, 2. behind the bar there was an outside sitting area (was a little too cold this time) that is another great place to hang.
