Looking for offbeat things to do in LA

[fierywoman]

1. Go to Bay Cities Deli in Santa Monica and

have Matt Damon's favorite sandwich (The Godmother). If you sew, go downtown to Michael Levine (two stores across the street from each other.) -- The remnants in the back of the regular fabric store (the other is the home furnishings fabric store) used to be quite the bargain. And in that neighborhood there are other amazing fabric stores.

Santa Monica farmer's market (Wed & Sat, I think) were quite amazing, too.
