atwater village

we've been in this corner of los angeles for three years now. i'm kinda scared to leave, to trade square footage for the neighborhood i've grown to love. yesterday was such a gorgeous stroll day. we had a haircut, then shared cookie snacks at toni's bakery (the chocolate and carrot cake!!!!) then trolled out of the closet. some neighbor had just donated a huge collection of spanish books. great works that sold for a dollar. i bought 5, i'm trying to read again- for me. not for class, nor kids but for mama. i'll turn in book reports when i'm done.
