Los Angeles Meetup! October 28, 2009 12:04 PM Subscribe
My dearest and most cherished Angelenos, let us welcome our dear friend Alnedra to the land of swimming pools and movie stars.
She will be here approximately from November 18th to 21st. She likes tea. Perhaps we can have a tea party!

Still a few working wells in Long Beach, and I once worked in Carson (not named after Johnny) just down the street from a refinery in Wilmington. Fun place. What was the question? Can I go down to the see-ment pond now?

I've recently converted to tea from coffee and I LOVE the idea of a tea party. I'm in!

I LOVE TEA and I love tea parties and I love tea rooms (though I am not so fond of tea baggers) and any of those dates works for me.

Alnedra is an anagram for "a LA nerd." This is a sign, people!!!

That's almost my birthday, but I don't know where I'm going to be around then, yet.

I'm interested, but I'll need a concrete time and place before I can confirm.

Awww, mandyman, thank you for posting this!
The 20th is a Friday, so that might be good? A place might be tougher though. Where can we go where they'll let us brew our own tea? I'll be bringing some pretty nice teas along, and while some of it is a belated birthday present for mandyman, I'm definitely bringing some extra that we can share. I just hope that customs officers don't think that I'm smuggling pot...

I was thinking we could meet at Casbah Cafe (on Sunset and Hyperion) for our tea (they have an assortment of food as well) and then if we're feeling so inclined, head across the street to Pazzo Gelato for dessert.

Ill be flying back from Chicago that night (or not, depending on how things go), but if I am in town, I will try to make up your way.

I love Casbah - if I can make it I will. No one will know me but that's OK because I will buy your love.

SF wants shoutouts. And a sidecar. Or maybe a G&T.

Oil. I'm talking about unrefined petroleum. Does she like oil?
