Crate & Barrel Year End Sale Draws Huge Morning Crowd In Woodland Hills
For some insane and unknown reason I was driving around town at 8:50AM this morning when I noticed huge lines at the front and back entrances to Crate & Barrel. After a quick phone call to the store, I learned they are having a big sale on all seasonal merchandise (50% off). Also, when I got home I was able to check my e-mail and see this:

Strolling Down Candy Cane Lane In Woodland Hills On Christmas Eve
I had intended to post this message yesterday, but unfortunately had to deal with a server RAID failure all day.

In a recent LA Times article asking readers to submit what Los Angeles homes showed the most Christmas spirit, a commenter wrote:

You should also see a very good article in the Daily News last week about Candy Cane Lane.
Additionally, I visited Candy Cane Lane after having a wonderful prix fixe Christmas Eve dinner at Pinot Bistro in Studio City. That’s becoming something of a Christmas Eve tradition for me, and I absolutely love the place, their holiday menu, and the atmosphere. I’m not exactly sure when Candy Cane Lane ends, but I suspect it’ll be around for at least a few more days. Every night that I’ve driven by there has been quite a long line of cars. Seems like the unofficial ‘entrance’ is at Winnetka Avenue and Oxnard St.
