Brunch at the Races Giveaway ends 10-07!
October is my birthday month, and a bit of a milestone…I hate talking about my age, but, it will be the end of the 20s era for me. Ack! Where did those years go?! I definitely know where the past few have been: Doing cool adventures for this blog! I am extremely excited that a bucket list goal will get checked off as I have been invited to head out to The Santa Anita Races to see a horse race (& maybe bet a little?!) while we get to enjoy BRUNCH. Thats right, it seems like a win-win to me as L.A. Weekly is excited to confirm the final restaurant line up for the popular newspaper’s new signature event, Brunch at the Races.
