December's Dinner Party @ La Strada on Second Street
Looks like fun!
What is the "Dinner Party"? The Dinner Party is a once a month event put on by We Love Long Beach. The two main goals behind the event are to get neighbors together over a good meal and to get to know each other better, and to support new and established restaurants in the city through a wonderful dining experience. We see it as a win-win for all!
If you are interested in our next "Dinner Party" email us at welovelb@gmail.com
Thank you Lisa and staff for a beautiful night!

Book for June... Not May, but June.. get it, got it, good!
The Book 0f the month for June:Ella Minnow Pea: A Novel in Letters by Mark Dunn :Ella Minnow Pea' is a delightfully diverting novel filled with wit and imagination. Its lovingly crafted structure is a real breath of fresh air -- one would be hard pressed to find another book like it out there. One must admire Mark Dunn not only for his lively imagination but for his awe-inspiring power over words. It is fun to see how he manages to continue telling his story while avoiding use of a growing number of letters in the alphabet. Never once does his prose sound forced or simple, even after he must resort to using his remaining letters to phonetically sound out his words. The plot (citizens on an island off the coast of the US rebel after their government begins restricting their use of the alphabet) could have easily been silly, cliched and like a poor man's 'Animal Farm' but instead forges out its own solid identity and endears itself to the reader through its inventiveness and wit... The date for our June meeting is Monday, the 30th from 7-9pm.
Meeting places: Aroma Di Roma, 5327 E. 2nd Street, Long Beach, CA 90803 And a our second location at Vint's also on Monday on Second Street, Vint's American Grill 4722 E. 2nd StreetLong Beach, CA 90803... Please come join us... All are welcome if you have read the book.

What is We Love Long Beach about?
We Love Long Beach is a community based group that is about creating safe and welcoming environments, where we as neighbors can get to know and serve one another. There is so much fear and individualism that exists in our city. We recognize these issues as serious, and that is why we want begin to address them.
***************
We are attempting to do so by having Neighborhood Breakfasts, BBQs, Book Clubs, Helping the Homeless, and in the future we hope a lot more...
****************
We understand that it takes our community to join in with us, so that we can begin to find out what it means "to be a good neighbor".
*********
If you are interested in helping out or donating to our cause-- to a better Long Beach-- please contact us: welovelb@gmail.com

The Burrito Project is here again...
Burrito Project (sometimes known as the burrito brigade) is a group of people who have a heart for meeting the basic needs of the homeless in our city. Each Thursday, we meet at 6:30pm to cook and wrap approximately 40-50 burritos. After we have packed away a water bottle for each burrito, we ride together on our bikes towards downtown and we hand them out to the homeless.
"It is the many conversations, and the building of relationships with the homeless and with each other that has made this weekly ride special."
If you are interested in being a part of the Burrito Project, we meet each Thursday night at:
269 Obispo Ave (in the backhouse)
Long Beach, CA 90803
We meet at 6:30pm and make the burritos.
If you can only make it for the ride, we leave around 8:00pm on our bikes.
If you are interested show up or you can email us: welovelb@gmail.com

The Book Club is Growing
The Belmont Shore book club was Into the Wild this week, doubling our numbers from last month. Thank you for coming... Sean Penn would be pleased!!! He said that he was going to come but was held up in traffic. I think I would rather hang out with his brother Chris though. Does anyone else agree? I think that Cyrus already talked with him :) Come out and Plaaaayyyyy... We are looking at two sites in order to keep our talks more intimate...
Hope to see you next month!
Hope to see you next month!

Book Club this Monday!!!! Excitement...
Welovel0ngbeach Book of the Month: Into the Wild by Jack Krakauer
What would possess a gifted young man recently graduated from college to literally walk away from his life? Noted outdoor writer and mountaineer Jon Krakauer tackles that question in his reporting on Chris McCandless, whose emaciated body was found in an abandoned bus in the Alaskan wilderness in 1992.
The date for our next meeting is Monday, April 28th from 7-9pm.
Meeting place: Aroma Di Roma, 5327 E. 2nd Street, Long Beach, CA 90803
