LAdventures: birthday (lawn)bowling.

lawn bowling. 

who knew? 

miss tiffany had a birthday

and we planned a most excellent celebration, 

which involved the lawn bowling club of los angeles. 

we rallied the peeps, dressed all in white and turned

holmby park on it's head!

the sport itself is pretty fun but the real 

treat is the lawn bowling enthusiasts

that are more than willing to share a few pointers

on their beloved past time.

the lawn bowling club offers free lessons every 

saturday morning. check it out.

we continued the celebration at soul burger in inglewood

(which deserves a post of it's own), let it suffice to say: 

DELURSH! just...go. eat. fall in love. 

and the LAdventures continue...

birthday celebration.

adorable creole cafe. isn't it cute?

old town graveyard. yeah, i know.
