I was walking around Silverlake one evening when I saw this elderly Polish woman picking small yellow fruits off a tree. I approached her asking what the name of the fruit was and she insisted I try one before she would tell. Without hesitation I trusted this lady and took a bite. These things are delicious. When ripe, Loquats are sweet and juicy with hints of citrus... just watch out for the seeds in the middle. For the last month this has been my go to snack. I’ll even pull over if I see a tree. Thanks Zuza.

The love of my life in fruit. I implore you to go to your nearest asian grocer.

I'm lucky enough to have a car that still has a cassette player. I have now accumulated a small library of tapes that fill up my glove box and passenger seat. Having tangible music in the car is important because you never know when you're out of service or without a phone. Plus I enjoy listening to albums from top to bottom. Here are the ones I play the most...Sade - Stronger than PrideAl Green - Unchained Melody Pat Metheny Group - Still Life(Talking)

I'm only putting this one in here because it's the question I get asked the most. What boots do you wear? My favorite boot ever is the SEGUIN boot from Justin. I've had them for two years now and they keep getting better. I was never much of a sneaker head anyways...

Cancel your Netflix account and get a Criterion subscription. It is a movie streaming service featuring an eclectic mix of classical and contemporary films. I recently watched The Maestro: King of the Cowboy artists. The movie follows Gerald Gaxiola, a man that quits his job and takes on the persona of the American Cowboy to make art for art's sake. It feels like I'm following suit. They had Two Lane Blacktop on there for a while starring young James Taylor and Dennis Wilson from the Beach Boys. That film prompted me to buy a car and travel across the country. There are so many other gems on there, it’s hard to miss.
