Wetsand Fiesta.

Last Thursday we cruised to one of my favorite shops, Wetsand in Ventura- for a trunk show/ Ocho De Mayo Party! We set up alongside Beach Riot and Made by Dawn and we all had a super fun night! I lived in Ventura for a few years and it was so awesome to hang with some of my old buddies! It's been a goal of mine from the start of the line to be in Wetsand and I am so stoked to be a part of their fam! Thanks to Shannon and the Wetsand gang for a great night and looking forward to Mint's Fall Collection being in Wetsand in July!

Artisanal LA.

A few weekends ago Nikki and I cruised down to the Artisanal LA Spring Show- a pop up event at LA Mart that gives you the opportunity to explore local vendors... meet em, get their stories and taste their locally made products! Although there is more then food! Art, home decor, jewelry- we could have stayed and explored all day.

 Below are some of my favorites from the show- 

 Health-Ade: Pomegranate is my fave! 

 The Local Branch. 

(Remember when I "cleansed" my new loft? Post here.. They make a kit for that!) 

 Greenwood Jams.

Ghost Pepper & Tangerine!

 Hepp's Salt. 

Best ever. Truffle salt! Trust me. 

 Outpost Coffee.

Cold pressed coffee. Nikki is addicted.

 Awesome Bars.

I could live on these! My pick: Cranberry Trail Mix. 

Art's District Printing Co. 

Love these! All natural prints- ink from fruits & veggies! Amazing. 

(Nikki is wearing Mint "Paradise Tee" and "Tie Dye Harems") 

Thank you Artisanal LA for having us!

Weekend Ritual: Farmer's Market.

 One of my favorite things to do on the weekend is cruise the local farmer's markets. There are several vendors I kinda of... stalk? Weird choice of words? One I LOVE is Dave's.. it's Vegan Korean food and it's amazing!! Spicy tempeh, spicy chop veggie, lotus root, daikon, seaweed salad.. trust me you will be addicted! I like to stock up over the weekend and plan for the week, although to be honest it's usually gone by Wednesday! Fresh, organic fruits & veggies, juices, tapas, chips & salsa, succulents and flowers and the best part? It's all grown and made locally! 

Here is a list of my faves:

Calabasas: Saturdays 8am- 1pm

Pasadena: Saturdays 8:30am- 12:30pm 

Malibu: Sundays 10am - 3pm

Hollywood: Sunday 8am-1pm

Ice Cream Makes It Better.

I am a girl that loves sweets. They are my downfall. Ice cream and cookies in particular. I heard about this super cute little ice cream place in Pasadena and we happen to be down the street so we stopped in! I knew the ice cream would be good, and it was. I sampled a few flavors and chose the brown sugar vanilla bean. But the cookies! I have never had any like them! They pretty much taste like cookie dough. Super thin and.. like, they taste exactly like cookie dough! Told you still working on my describing words! Anyway! Thank you Carmela's for the sweet treats!
