Wine-ing in Malibu

January 22, 2012 at 10:38 pm 3 comments

Friday afternoon my friends and I celebrated the weekend by going to Malibu Wine’s tasting room. We grabbed some food at Ralphs (cheese, salami, crackers) and headed up the PCH. The Malibu Wine’s tasting room in up in the mountains. The air is fresh and the sun was bright. I love taking advantage of one of the major perks of law school, three day weekends. This was the perfect way to start the weekend.

Saddle Rock Pinot Noir.

The spread.

The pro at work.

Perfection.

Even better than wine?

Crackers with salami and brie.

Now that is what I call wine-ing.

I’m sure this isnt the only time we are going to make it out to Malibu Wine’s this semester. It’s just too perfect of a place to spend an afternoon.

Can I also just say…. I love these people.

The semester is young but I think I’m the happiest I’ve been in several years right now thanks to these people (and others). I love my tight group of law school friends. Definitely what I’m going to miss most about law school.

I actually have had so much fun this weekend that I’ve neglected my homework. I need to get on that. But I also wanted to mention that I went on my longest run since the marathon yesterday. I pounded out 6 miles yesterday afternoon. Remember when I was able to do 16 no problem? Yeahhh. No longer. But it felt good to get out there. I forgot how epic the post run high can be and I felt healthy and strong afterwards. My legs are even sore today! Hurrah.

  Ha! No they won’t but I would highly reccomend bringing a picnic. If you can, try to go on a weekday because its packed on weekends.

Juris Doctored May 18, 2012

Hey everyone. It’s been a busy week over here. For starters, this happened: Hooded and ready to go. Last Friday my law school career officially ended with my law school graduation. I’m not sure I really have the words to describe the experience yet. Hands down, it was the greatest day of my life. Nerd [...]

The ends not near, it’s here. May 8, 2012

On top of the mountain. Get it? So last Wednesday I took my final law school exam and as we speak I am editing the final paragraphs of my Clinical Project. I will be completely and totally finished with everything associated with law school this evening. I’ve been doing a lot of reflecting on my [...]

Why eat food when you can wear it: My avocado facial April 29, 2012

Bacon, Leek and Scallion Pizza inspired by Pizzeria Mozza April 25, 2012

It’s a well known fact: I love pizza. While some have strong Chicago vs. New York opinions, I will pretty much enjoy any pizza as long as it’s well made. OK, that is a bit of a lie. Chicago pizza is boss. If you have a good, crispy yet thick crust and the right sauce [...]

Plan Check April 15, 2012

I’ve made a really obvious recent discovery: The LA Times website has an entire section devoted to food on the Westside! How did I not figure this out sooner? Obviously, the second I figured out that this section of the site existed I read all the entries that have been posted in the past year. [...]
