Recap: Unique Los Angeles

Unique Los Angeles was a complete success. As expected, we spent all of our cash in a few hours and left with puny wallets. That’s okay though. I met Claire of Absolutely Small, and her booth was so cute. I also met The Frantic Meerkat and The Mincing Mockingbird; very cool people.

We tried Cake Monkey Bakery, and it was so good! They didn’t have their fancy cakes, so we tried their Cakewich and L’il Merri. The L’il Merri is the gourmet version of the oatmeal creme pie, and it was addictive. Diet be damned!

Got some awesome letterpress cards at Dee & Lala.

Picked up a few stickers from Sticker Sisters.

Loved the cute baby blankets by Mimi and Lola.

The venue had plenty of space, and they even had a make-shift taco stand. The carne asada tacos were decent. We had a fabulous time at Unique Los Angeles, and we’re already looking forward to the next one.
