DDD Roadtrip!

Day 2 of NO parents:

Puff is obsessed with Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives on the Food Network.

So, we went on a little roadtrip to LA to eat at 2 of them. First, we went to the

Nickel Diner in downtown LA

We got there around 11 and had to wait about 30 minutes to get a table.

Puff's hamburger which he describes as "juicy, moist but yet dry. Inbetween. roasted bun with flavor. perfection" (whatever that means haha)

This was my Chicken salad sandwhich, which was amazing!

At the table next to us, we watched a man literally kiss his bacon donut and then put it into a to-go box.

We decided that we had better try a bacon donut. I thought it was good, not what I expected. Puff LOVED it and scarfed down most of it.

Goes right along with our family's love for salty-sweet food combinations.

Next, we did a little shopping in downtown LA, which is my favorite. Check back tomorrow for my shoe bargains! Then we went to IKEA and Nordstrom rack.

We were trying to pass the time between lunch and dinner so that we could go to our next DDD!

Finally when it was dinner time, we drove over to Venice Beach to go to

Baby Blues BBQ

Puff with the sauces. BBQ, home made tobasco, XXX (the SUPER hot one!), and sweet.

Our food. It was yummy. Puff thought he had died and gone to heaven.

Brisket, pulled pork, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, corn on the cob with parmesean cheese and lime, cornbread and of course all the yummy sauces.

Stuffed after dinner

But happy none the less.

*We may or may not have gone to Pinkberry on the way home. If you know me at all, you know the answer. Wink Wink.
