Yesterday I did another 100 mile bike ride. Organized by the city to promote cycling on the various bike paths. It went from Griffith Park along the river's bike path to Long Beach, Seal Beach and back. Should call it 'retailers who ride'. Rode with team OK. OK is another great home store in LA and Silverlake. Isn't the pigeon flying over the bike seat funny? Such timing.

Gotta love Easter!
I started the day by taking my dog Astro for a walk in Silverlake. Couldn't help but notice that someone was watching us.

Coming soon: Covell wine bar in Los Feliz
Los Feliz is about to become even more fabulous. My dear friend Dustin Lancaster of Cafe Stella fame will be opening his very own wine bar called Covell in about two weeks. I've been helping Dustin with some decorating and sourced out his barstools. Dustin has teamed up with Matt Kaner of Silver Lake Wine, Paige Handler of Pizzeria Mozza and Matt Poley of Heirloom LA. Knowing Dustin, this will certainly be a wine bar worth having on the fashionable east side.
Covell is located at 4628 Hollywood Blvd. between Vermont and Hillhurst.

Solvang Century
Two weeks ago I had the pleasure of riding the Solvang Century. Yes, that's 100 miles on a bicycle. I completed the ride in 8 hours. There were 5,500 cyclists. The course was a giant loop through the Santa Ynez valley which is just north of Santa Barbara. Lots of vineyards.
Oops, we had a flood
Early Tuesday morning a ceiling pipe burst at Show flooding the store with about 3" of lovely, rusty water. Fear not, we have plenty of product in the stock room which was not damaged! We will be closed for one to two weeks for renovation.
In the meantime, be sure to shop online at our fabulous new website!

Reducing my carbon footprint
Being an avid road cyclist, I decided to go one step further and get a single gear bike as well. I'll be riding this on my 1 1/2 mile commute from Silverlake to Los Feliz. This is a Cannondale that I bought at my favorite bike store, IMartin on Beverly in Los Angeles.
Announcing Show's new website!
I'm beyond thrilled to announce the launch of our new website!
We've added more products, original photography and fun tidbits throughout. Hope you like it.
And a big thank you to the lovely Tula Jeng from Whorange for revamping the entire website. Not only did she do an amazing job, but her hair looked fantastic throughout the entire process.
