Marmite? Jaffa Cakes? Head to the British Grocer!

After exiting the 91-motorway,  you can find yourself in a quaint little courtyard at the Villa del Sol center where a most unusual shop can be found.  Specializing in goods from the land of the Beatles,  Harry Potter, and James Bond, the British Grocer in Downtown Fullerton stocks it’s shelves full of British sweets and necessities.
Upon entering the shop, you’re greeted by shelves of sweets, tea sets, and the owner of the store, an old British lady whose voice made me smile and think of the memories of when I …

Get Your Pistons Ready!

The feeling of air going through your hair, the rush of a turbo, and the force of taking a turn – ahh…the sensations that driving a car can give you. Don’t you just love ‘em?

Well, we have two more events …

Think of a two foot long post-it…

Wall graphics are cool little things aren’t they. They’re like huge post-its except not yellow, not made of paper, and you can’t really write on them. BUT you can peel and stick to your heart’s content just like a super long lasting post-it. Do those sound cool or what? Well of course they do! Who doesn’t want a giant plastic post-it?
Anyways, as you’ve probably guessed by the title of this post that we have another contest and we’re giving away… you guessed it – wall graphics. Two of them to …

INSTANT GRATIFICATION: A Polaroid Party

Ahh…polaroid photos. Press a button. You’re blind for a split second, then you start flailing your arms everywhere. It’s a process that we’ve seen people do and have done ourselves many times.
Sadly, Polaroid stopped producing their beloved instant cameras in 2007 and will stop producing their instant film this year. (the 600 series is supposedly going to expire today!) There is a chance for you to relive those moments and also the moments of hundreds of others.
The Hibbleton Gallery in Downtown Fullerton will be opening an exhibit called “INSTANT GRATIFICATION: …

A Rush of Trivia at Knott’s Berry Farm

This video of a screaming kid on a roller coaster has been getting around on the interwebs and some TV and in case you didn’t notice,  it takes place on one of Orange County’s best roller coasters – the Silver Bullet at Knott’s Berry Farm.
Story behind this video though is that Cartoon Network has a show called Brain Rush, where contestants try to answer trivia questions while riding one of the many roller coasters at Knott’s. You can try to be on the show too I guess…though I don’t know …
