delicious chicken teriyaki plate with miso soup, pickles, and tofu.
Just across the street is a Robinson Beautilities..beautilities is such a strange word for cosmetics and beauty supplies. Anyway, this costume store is jam packed with a variety of costumes ranging from psuedo/scary Mickey Mouse heads/chicken costumes and Hawaiian muu-muus and a wide assortment of odds and ends (gags like fake poo smeared on a diaper).
Driving down Venice, we discovered the Venice High School swap meet (I wonder if their mascot is a VHS tape...jk). This takes place every second of the month and like other flea markets, you can find antiques, collectibles, vintage tees, but mostly used crappy junk. I did, however, find a merchant who was selling...PYREX. A little pricey for her pieces, I went and splurged on a small butter container and a coffee cup.
My pick ups.
There's also a near-by farmer's market in the Mar Vista area. Oranges, tangerines, and grapefruits are in season, so I had a fair share of samples from all the vendors. We decided to try the empanadas from the empanada stand. They were so-so, considering that they're 2 for 5 bucks (I thought they'd be huge, but they were actually small). We also picked up some hot chicken sausage from this bbq place. Quite spicy, but a yummy brunch I must say.
