If you're looking for a tasty, friendly spot in Venice to grab a drink, a weekend brunch, or healthy and delicious meal, I can recommend The Butcher's Daughter restaurant on Abbot Kinney Blvd.  It offers a nice breezy feeling inside and out, full bar, and lil' bakery.  Although a line does form in this popular spot, there's plentiful counter space where you can usually be seated right quick.

Venice is a fun, funky place to enjoy now that we are getting out and about a bit more.  And where else can you see a "Mushroom Moped" steering around town while you saunter back to your car or Uber, soaking in the atmosphere!  Website thebutchersdaughter.com.  Vegetarian and tasty, I'll definitely enjoy it again soon.

Like so many others, I am saddened and terrified by the horrific attack on the beautiful, peaceful country of Ukraine, and urge you to pray for peace, and donate as you are able to help out.  We can do this if we all stand together in harmony and love.  @razom.for.ukraine #standwithukriane #ukraine
