A Lucky Brunch

October 12, 2010

Waking up early has another side benefit. Aside from great photo ops, but how about a celebrity sighting?

I had brunch with a friend in Culver City over the weekend. We picked this cute diner with great some fluffy pancakes that made me smile. I still can’t get over how simple pancakes are but they’re so comforting to eat!

As we were walking around to help digest our meal, who did we happen to see waiting to cross the street?

Yes that is the wonderful Jamie Lee Curtis.

We thought that she was headed to Indiecade, since that’s the big event going on in Culver City. It was pretty cool and I’m so not used to seeing actors out and about doing normal everyday things.

It was pretty cool that you get to see celebrities. I am sure that I would never get a chance to see any of them in Ohio :) I am drooling over your pancake. I love pancakes for breakfast. Such a comfort food

Yummy! Coincidentally, I had pancakes over the wknd too (strawberry ricotta)!

At first glance I thought it was a man.. but once I read it was JLC I roecognized her. She’s dressed very dark for SoCal! She went to my university :)

Did you know that the secret to fluffy pancakes is to not overmix the batter?! I know of this trick but I still prefer going to a restaurant most of the time LOL. Ahhhh and a paparazzi picture of Jami Lee Curtis?! Crazy.

Really? I never know when to stop mixing cuz I’m always afraid of getting flour lumps in my pancakes.

wow, i would have never noticed her were it not for your caption! i’m so oblivious when i’m walking around. it’s cool seeing celebs in real life – sometimes we forget they’re normal people too!

I guess I’m more used to seeing them with the film crew, rehearsing and running lines, that it seems out of place when they’re running errands and stuff.

Cool!! Every time I’ve been to LA I’ve never seen a celeb :( I would die if i saw Victoria Beckham. Those pancakes look delish, I actually just ate pancakes for dinner! Yum!

Good eye! I’m not sure I would’ve recognized her on a street corner like that (unless there was paparazzi following her). I kinda like your restaurant posts so I know where to go to find great eats :)
