Cloning Act: Sadly, the Pepper tree was reduced to a 12 foot stump but fortunately City officials intend to clone its sprouts and sell to anyone wanting their own Pepper tree.

Disappearing Act: Laguna was swept up in the solar eclipse hysteria but proved most exciting for Lagunans willing to travel for the ultimate view.

Protest Act: This year a tie was granted between the Women’s March protest in January and the protest for America First! in August. Thankfully, each was peaceful.

Act of Domination: Laguna bred skimboarders dominated the World Championship at Aliso Beach coinciding with City Council’s declaration that Laguna has become the Skimboard Capital of the World.

Rock ‘n’ Roll Act: Kelly McIntyre was Janis Joplin reincarnated at Laguna Playhouse in “A Night With Janis Joplin”.

Clean/Clear Air Act: Nobody mess with our air and sky! This year ordinances were passed keeping us smoke free and nearly drone free.

Act of Bravery: Fast acting Laguna Beach lifeguard, Jerod McMillon, jumped into action saving the life of a choking 10-month-old baby.

Miracle Act: Local Jason Mueller put the buddy system to work after pulling his stand up paddle companion, Pamela Simpson, onto his board while she was suffering a seizure on the open waters.

Proclamation Act: Hear ye, Hear ye! Laguna Beach has officially declared June to be Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Heritage and Culture Month!

National Velvet Act: “Crystal”, a white Arabian mare leaped her Canyon home fence for greener pastures. Luckily she was returned home safely.

Robbery Act: Fedora donning burglar, Edward Torrison, was eventually nabbed in Oceanside. He’ll be trading in his spiffy threads for an orange jumpsuit.

Act of Love: Police Sergeant Dave McGill adopts a neglected German Shepherd pup discovered at the home of two robbery suspects. He brought his new best friend home on Father’s Day. Future Act: Hotel Laguna, our historic, iconic hotel, the beacon of Main Beach is changing hands Dec. 31st and VIBE is very excited about the future of this beloved landmark.

Final Act: Sawdust Artist, Dennis Junka, nickname “Junka Bear”; John Gardiner: Prolific Poet, Actor, Teacher, friend and lover of life; Stu Saffer, journalist and founder of Stu News Laguna, mentor to many, community stalwart, and baseball fanatic. Your spirits live on in Laguna.

Wishing you holiday cheer and a blissful new year!

BY SERVET HASAN DEC., 2017

ARIES (March 21 – April 19) Last month family members may have left the Ram feeling a bit sheepish. But matters settle down and you can turn your attention to career concerns and the future of your finances. All good.

TAURUS (April 20 – May 20) The Bull is quite literally full of baloney, figuratively and literally. Watch what you say as your words count more than ever. Also, it’s time for you to stop eating junk and get serious about your diet.

GEMINI (May 21 – June 20) Part of you wants to get out there and take on the world, while the other half of you wants to stay in bed. It’s not all or nothing. Compromise and do both. You’ll find that things even out on their own.

CANCER (June 21 – July 22) You’ve clawed your way up the ladder a bit this year and now it’s time to kick back and let things unfold naturally. While others are plotting along you can relax and network without the pressure.

LEO (July 23 – Aug. 22) The new moon will clarify your financial strategies in a way it never has before, and with that you are ready to go roaring forward into whole new realms of money making ideas. It all pays off big time.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22) Get ready for a financial windfall this month. When it arrives, use it to figure out the next course of action. Go slow and steady and don’t make any rash decisions. What you decide now will last.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22) Your career is finally back on track and now you even have family balancing things out on that end as well. Look for someone in your clan to give you a much needed helping hand.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21) You couldn’t sting anyone if you tried this month. Love is everywhere. Open your heart and you will not only receive it emotionally, but physically and financially as well.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21) You could shoot an arrow blindfolded and it would still hit the bulls eye this month. Capitalize on your superb luck and don’t be afraid to take risks. At least buy a lotto ticket.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19) You have stubbornly been pursuing the approval of those in your family that had your goat lately. Finally, you not only win them over, but gain their unconditional support.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18) Money matters that were stuck before begin to flow freely in your direction. Keep your eye out for unexpected opportunities that will pay off big time in the long run.

PISCES (Feb. 19 – March 20) You may want to find a bigger pond to swim in now, so you will likely expand your horizons. Now is the time to dive into the deep end. If you do, you will be pleasantly surprised.

Cocktail aficionados, who recall the fifties and sixties when cocktails like the Manhattan, Old Fashioned and the Moscow mule were de rigueur, must know Ivory Restaurant and Lounge is THE PLACE for these classic imbibements.

Everyday but Monday Ivory’s pre-dinner Happy Hour from 5pm to 6:30pm offers 50% off all appetizers and bottled beers with selected wines and cocktails for $5.

The intimate bar at this delightful little hideaway in Laguna Canyon is backed with plush leather booths beckoning to discerning dinner guests who may also enjoy the adjoining dining room. The attraction is gourmet cuisine elegantly presented on angular white plates, each adorned with a fresh vanda orchid. We selected a multiple of ample sized appetizers, each one Octopus Ceviche more delicious than the last: plump little short rib stuffed blini rolls with savory mushroom gravy; octopus ceviche nicely tenderized in citrus marinade; olive oil marinated goat cheese with luscious braised beets; fresh Caprese mozzarella featuring heirloom tomato quarters; and crisply light, sweet boom-boom shrimp. All delicious and highly recommended.

Ivory Restaurant and Lounge, 853 Laguna Canyon Rd., 949 715-0261.

Glormet’s Glori Fickling, aka Honeywest, is a Laguna Beach resident since 1950. Her dining reviews have been published in various magazines throughout Orange County. We are excited to have her on board to cover the restaurant scene for Laguna Beach Vibe!
