Dave and I went to the LA Book Fair for about 5 hours on Sunday. We caught a panel on music lyrics with Aimee Mann and Joe Henry (they played a few songs each and spoke about their musical processes). Then we scoured the booths in the 90 degree heat until Dave's celebrity crush (Winnie Cooper from the Wonder Years) gave a reading on her new book "Math Doesn't Suck". She was actually really smart and inspiring - especially in light of recent Hollywood actress's exploits around town. When all was said and done, Dave had bought three books and I only bought one. Book fair was fun, but TOO HOT. It was pretty on par with the Printers Row Book Fair in Chicago, although it was a little more spread out. Also, I noticed a lot more organic food at the LA Book Fair Food Court. Still didn't stop me from eating California Pizza Kitchen. Yum!

Food? You didn't say anything about food. Big incentive.
