I have been “off air” for awhile. I had some health problems, I was down, and felt terrible for months, but I am back. It feels so good to feel good again. My first big outing was to LA last weekend for the Ultimate Women’s Expo. What a great time I had at the expo in general and in LA in particular.My friend and super poker power Barbara Enright has been inviting me to LA for this expo for years. Finally, it was the right time. We crammed years worth of visiting, fun, eating, and laughing into 48 hours.

She also had told me about “Clifton’s Cafeteria in downtown LA; where her grandmother took her when she was a little child. You don’t go to Clifton’s for the food these days, but for the ambiance. I sent my son a picture of a buffalo. He texted back, “I didn’t know you were going to a zoo!” I could have spent hours just walking around and looking at everything. The most impressive to me was a glass case with a silver teapot and a hand written letter beside it. Written in a beautiful calligraphy, it read, “Dear Glifton’s 48 years ago my husband and I spent a lovely evening at Clifton’s on our honeymoon, I so admired the silver teapot that when we got in the car, I realized that my husband had taken it by putting his navy hat over it. Ir has been the pride of my teapot collection for decades. My husband dies two years ago; can you forgive him?”

On Sunday morning, we visited the original Pantry. If a full parking lot is a sign that tells you that a restaurant, is good, a 3-block long waiting line is a definite sign of excellence. I always said I would never wait in a long line for anything or anyone. Barb assured me that it would be worth the wait and she was right! As we neared the front door, I read the message etched in the glass door,”Through this door that has no key, you will enter a cafe that has never closed since 1924. Our waiter, Jose had been working at the Pantry for 38 years and he worked like a machine, personable but friendly and efficient. The dessert of the entire trip was when my friends Tammy and Joy took me to an outlaying area , in an outdoor open-air shopping area. I don’t remember the name of the area, but the ice cream parlor was “Smitten”. I’ve never seen anything like it or even heard about it. Every order was freshly made with liquid nitrogen. Instant ice cream! And to mention another interesting treat. How about Boxed Water! Water is water – NOT! It was the best tasting water I have ever had! We met Tammy’s folks, David and Tammy, Sr. and Joy’s hubby, Hal. We all teased Hal about his pink tennis shoes, He said they were “rose gold in color. Oh, how I wish I knew how to get my pictures from my phone to this blog!

I saw many famous speakers at the expo. My favorite was Sheryl Underwood (The Talk). I liked her before I heard her speak and now I like her more. On the subject of politics, she said, I don’t care if you like him or hate him, you better pray for him, he is our leader!” On the subject of men, she said, ” I have had many samples from the buffet of love, but haven’t yet found one I could not live without.” Her Daddy taught her,” You are not better than nobody but nobody is better than you!”

A professional poker player shed seventy pounds after his buddies bet him $1 million that he could not drop down to just 10 percent body fat in six months.Walter Fisher, 36, said that he blamed. Alexa Fisher, from Texas, looks and talks like any other 8-year old girl.However, she has a skill that is most unusual for girls her age. She can play poker fabulously well. In fact, Alexa is so. These players are old fogies compared to Alexa Fisher, who began playing poker at age 3 (a year, even, before Barbara Enright), and before long had mastered every form of poker dealt at the WSOP.

I was surprised and saddened by downtown LA. It is dirty, dangerous, and there are homeless everywhere, some even pitching tents on the sidewalks. Don’t get me started on the traffic or the very expensive parking.

At the Expo, I had a free massage and a free haircut.The massage was great, the haircut turned out fine, but why it took two hours, why,I’ll never know. Barb said he was cutting one hair at a time. Mark your calendars for the LA Women’s Expo. next year. It is well worth the time and effort to get there!
