THE BOONDOCKS IS BACK!!! WOO HOO!! 2009

Can it be? I've been waiting with bated breath...I thought the last hiatus was long but this time it's been TWO years since the last Boondocks episode...The first episode of Season 3 is completed...Aaron McGruder confirmed it via Twitter himself...Now let's see how long it takes before The Cartoon Network/Adult Swim actually airs it...I connect more with Huey but I've really missed Riley's antics...

Breakfast of Champions...

A few months ago I blogged about the abundance of specialty food trucks on the streets of LA... Since that blog post about another 86 food trucks have hit the road...You thought I was sick of it then well trust...I'm SICK of it now...well...I thought I was sick of it...Then I came across the Buttermilk Truck and I have to admit it intrigues me...After I saw the menu I was a little upset when I realized they haven't even launched yet...

With things like Hawaiian Bread Cinnamon French Toast Sticks...

and Fried Chicken with Housemade Cinnamon Waffles...


BOTH the morning and evening menus are definitely going to have me chasing...Sounds like the perfect post-club meal...They're having a launch party tomorrow so I think I'll stop by and get to know my new food obsession a little better...Follow them on Twitter so you can chase them around LA like I'm going to...I think it's going to be worth it...

Tokidoki X Karl Lagerfeld Collabo?! WTF?!


We KNOW I love Tokidoki collabo's...I blog about them non-stop...This collabo between Tokidoki and Karl Lagerfeld has been popping up all over the net and I hope it's real...I stopped by the Tokidoki booth at Magic but I didn't get a chance to speak with Simone 'cuz he was busy being interviewed...Now I wished I woulda waited patiently and got the scoop...Patience is a mutha f*cka...

Will Chad Upset The NFL? Chances Are YES...



I must say I was a little sad when OchoCinco stopped tweeting...It took me a minute to realize it because I was recovering from being in Vegas for Magic and hadn't been on Twitter...All of a sudden though I realized I hadn't seen a tweet from him in days and I knew something had to be wrong...See Chad ustreams all the time and tweets non-stop...to his fans, to his girlfriend, to whomever will listen actually and when I hadn't seen a tweet from him I had to go on his profile and see what happened that's when I saw the message but I knew it wouldn't be long before Chad started tweeting again...SI.com reports it will happen this Sunday for the opener against the Broncos...I'm anxious to see what's going to happen 'cuz like he told me once before 'he ain't wrapped too tight'...

What's In YOUR Wallet?

There have been a few blog posts the last few days about wallets being released this Fall with embossed diamond prints...None of those wallets are even half as ill as the wallet being released by Diamond Supply Co. this holiday season...The black Diamond Supply Co. embossed leather billfold is ill...Its subtly exudes maturity unlike the other crayon colored wallet and the red inside stripe adds just the right amount of color to keep it from being boring...It will also be available with a Tiffany inside stripe...

Everywhere I Turn There's A Damn Truck...




The latest LA craze is to buy an old taco truck and drive it around town delivering premium goods..I'm not go'n lie... I thought it was a very clever idea in the beginning but now that there's 184 different trucks running around the damn city it's not so cute any more...I have my favorite (Kogi BBQ Truck!) Like I said there's literally about 184 of them so I can't post them all...but here's a list of a few of them...


- Baby's Badass Burgers (did I really just type that?) - The owners of One Group started this truck and very honestly I think they did it just to be funny...STK..Taco Truck... How do those words even fit in the same sentence? But if the burgers are anything like the other upscale food they serve in their restaurants in LA then chasing this truck is worth the gas...Follow Baby's Badass Burgers on Twitter for location alerts as well... (menu)




- Kogi BBQ Truck - These set of trucks go by colors (Azul, Verde, Rojo) and they'll tweet their locations all day so you can catch up to them...The food is definitely worth the chase...Follow Kogi BBQ on Twitter to stay up to date (menu)...



- Fish Lips Sushi Truck - Now I dunno how smart it is to buy sushi from a truck but I purchased some once before from a 7-eleven so I guess a truck is at least one step above that...Follow Fish Lips Sushi on Twitter (menu)...



- Dodger Ticket Truck - Follow the Dodgers on Twitter and they'll alert you to the trucks every stop...You can buy tickets and $1 hot dogs...



- Dosa Truck - What is a Dosa? Follow the Dosa Truck on Twitter...

And last on my list of faves...but certainly not least is...

- Sprinkles Cupcake Van - I'm not even going to explain this one 'cuz if you dunno what Sprinkles is by NOW you might as well shoot yourself...Follow Sprinkles Cupcake Van on Twitter...
