Overheard at the Whole Foods in Brentwood the night before Thanksgiving by a gay man in a huff:
“Are these seriously my butter options? Where’s my cultured European butter?”
We sure are demanding all right. Us Angelenos want it right here right now. Even when it comes to our cultured European butter.
Ahhh, my Los Angeles. Only in My LA will two people (one of them being me) have a conversation for a good 5 minutes about whether or not Hawaii is a state. “I’m almost positive it’s a commonwealth like Puerto Rico.” “Yeah, that sounds about right.”
Guess we were just off in LaLa Land (literally) during Geography class. Surely you understand.
Even once in a while, something amazing comes out of LA that makes me proud be an Angeleno.
John West is one of those things.
Even though we got him from Louisiana, he’s ours now.
