I came to L.A., back in 1996 and it took until late 98 for me to crash and burn, right? But when l moved to Culver City, Pam’s was the first place that I felt that American connection, that local diner thing. I went there for years, frequently then less frequently. Yesterday I walked all over me and Mrs S’s neighborhood where we lived for 11 years. The hopefulness came back, ya dig? I was like, “good to be home.” That all rumors of the end of the world were grossly exaggerated. But coming to Pann’s was like “this is home.” I almost got emotional, even. A waffle, fried chicken and a bottomless cup of coffee, for t felt like “America, this is home.” After 3-1/2 years in Japan, a wonderful place. But there’s no diversity, and there’s no local L.A. Inglewood Culver City local diner community. It’s so different, you’d have to live there to really get it. But this, we’re coming back. I’m gonna make it happen. #losangeles #thisisamerica #imhome #theresnoplacelikehome #california #americanlife (at Pann's) https://www.instagram.com/p/CixzfDDpvaz/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

She wants a cooking club at her school. First, I want to see how engaged you are at home. We’re gonna make it happen. At 1am, I’m teaching her how to clean and prep the kitchen, clean and season the chicken, use the proper utensils, tidy the kitchen…sanitize… “Go to bed, baby. Ms. Kristal got it from here.” She wanted to prepare tomorrow night’s dinner today. Don’t ask me why a #lessonplan was implanted at 1am. She’s up, I’m up…house asleep, let’s get to work. 💐💐💐 me, please. Chef K’s Menu: Roasted Cornish Hen Roasted Potatoes Veggie TBD Chef L, she’s on dessert. 🍰 #imup #locsofsage #imhome https://www.instagram.com/p/Cib7zx_O_y2/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
