On top of being national Grilled Cheese Month ( a.k.a. Fat Girl Month), it's evidentally  national alcohol festival weekend.
Fine by me: there is beer for the beer drinkers and wine for the wine drinkers.
The beer fest is broken up into two times on Saturday- which I don't quite understand, which is fair enough since I don't quite understand the allure of beer anyway.
Los Angeles Beer Festival
WHERE: Sony Pictures Studios 10202 W Washington Blvd. Culver
WHEN: Saturday 1-4 PM, then 5- 8 PM
COST: $40

I've never been to San Pedro- but I guess its the " edge" of LA.
Maybe you've got friends out there that you've been meaning to visit....
Edge of LA International Wine Festival
WHERE:  Off the Vine 491 6th Street 103 San Pedro, CA   
WHEN: 2-6 PM
COST $50-150

Happy Festival-ing Folks!
