This weekend is shaping up to be fun-filled and fancy-free. Enjoy!

5. Enroll in a Cooking Course at Hipcooks
We first learned about Hipcooks when we attended The Brewery’s Spring Art Walk. For $55, you get a themed cooking lesson, plus eat the treats you make (including wine tasting). With classes like cheese-making, Moroccan, French, or Thai food, you’re bound to find something up your alley. (HINT: This might be the PERFECT gift for Mom!!)
Spaces are limited, so if you see a class you like, sign up ASAP! (We learned this the hard way.)
Two Los Angeles locations:
Hipcooks West
2833 South Robertson Boulevard
Los Angeles, CA 90034
Hipcooks East
642 Moulton Ave, Unit E21
Los Angeles, CA 90031 (Please visit website for very detailed information on their location. It’s a little difficult to find if you’re not familiar with The Brewery)
