+2

Plus 2.

It was Noah's book release party for his Unstuck that not only is awesome but I am in, as a blurb. Also, my follow-up post is on the 365 site, with a few photo highlights from the project. Fun thing with doing this one is that nearly a year ago, Noah and I did a napstache together for his last book thing at Chop Suey! So awesome!

So Lisa and Hope and I swung by before going to see the Virginians Barbershop Choir. I know! You are like: really, a barbershop quartet? We had acquired free tickets and it was their secular holiday program, and Lisa and I are always up for a unique adventure in different art culture. Dragging the teenager along too, but I knew she would probably like it. Heck, I liked it! It was really rather incredible...a fun evening.

Anyway, thanks to Ceci, we are also having one of the quartets on during our Holiday radio spectacular on River City Limits, December 10th on WRIR 97.3 (5-7PM). We write a script and everything....a cavalcade of stars and performances! Look, I even photoshoped a crazy ass holiday picture of us for the promo.

The Three Hundred and Fourth...

Number Three Hundred and Four:

Home, Snack, Hummus

Home from WRIR doing the River City Limits. Decent show with band Machine Gun Mustache, followed by great conversation with some Teen Library folks visiting!

The Ninetieth...

Number Ninety:







The Tavern, Dinner, Hummus






A quick bite after an appointment, Hope had a salad, me the hummus plate, which is not bad. The thing about getting a hummus platter is that when you first see it, you are all like, "Man, that is NOT going to be enough hummus, I can't believe I paid 8 bucks for it." But by the time you are halfway through it, you are FULL. Ahh, chickpeas and tahini, good stuff that sticks with you. This photo kind of has that guy on the grassy knoll at Dealey Plaza vibe to it. Yes, I hit the Corks & Kegs store afterwards to stock up!

The Seventy-Ninth...

Number Seventy-Nine:



Greek Grill Cafe, Lunch, Hummus and Spanikopita


Friday lunch! This place is a nice little spot on Westwood run by the family that used to run Su Casa around the corner. Nice hummus appetizer with warm pita, fresh tomatoes, cukes, and olives. Hummmmmmmmmus! So Lisa has librarianly and smartly noted that I should include Murals as a tag! Yes! Look at this puppy! So blue, so many things going on, so Greek! Plus this stache kind of looks like the ectoplasm from Victorian medium photos.

Ectoplastache!
