Beskuit plus another spotting

I managed to bake decent beskuit in a gas oven. I was a bit nervous about the drying process as I've always used electric ovens for baking beskuit, but all turned out very well I think.
We walked over to Larchmont Village for coffee at Peet's Coffee and Tea. It's a chain in the same vain as the Starbucks group, but better,much better.
Outside of the Starbucks on the way we saw John Paul Pitoc hunched by his dog, talking to a customer about said dog. Mr. Pitoc starred in the '99 movie Trick and also had a role in some episodes of Six Feet Under as a crematory attendant. So I am doing fairly well at spotting strange celebrities. Now my life will really be complete if only I can spot Tori Spelling!
My birthday is coming up soon and I am a little uncomfortable with the situation. Not the ageing. But it will be the first time that I am celebrating a birthday with no South African friends in sight. In fact, I pretty much don't really no anyone that well here and I am planning nothing. I guess I feel a bit more for birthdays than I've always pretended. Hmmmm.
