Cutie checked out Waffle Fusion, the newest high-concept eatery in her neighborhood, and

reviewed it on Yelp.

East Side gal Cutie heads back to her old Hollywood stomping grounds to see how the famous Farmer's Market, which she's been coming to since the 1930s, is faring in the 21st Century, then drops into Dupars restaurant for some pie and memories. Let's tag along and see how she likes it.

As the polls close across the country, Californians like Cutie still have a little time to get out and cast their ballots. Cutie voted, and she hopes everyone reading this did so, too... and if not, she hopes you're on your way to the polling station. Don't miss your chance to vote because you're messing around watching OGs videos!

For her first blog entry since losing her beloved Harry, Cutie dresses up in her Halloween costume and serenades her fans with a rendition of the Hollywood High School fight song and a favorite Yiddish ditty. It's pretty silly stuff, but the underlying message is serious: this is one tough little gal who is keeping her spirits up--because that's what Harry would have wanted her to do. From our family to yours, with love: Happy Halloween!

Cutie's friend Thessaly Lerner, aka The Ukulady, wrote the OGs' ultra-catchy theme song. She's also a puppeteer and kids' entertainer, and the creator of Miss Carrot & The Peas, investigative journalists. They recently caught up with Cutie to get her secrets for staying cute and dealing with fame, and caught The Cutester in an especially sassy mood. Click below to get in on the fun.

This week's film selection is "Toy Story 3," and while Cutie hasn't seen anything else in the series, that didn't stop her from enjoying the third entry enormously. Tune in to get her thoughts on "Toy Story," with an interlude on the entirely-too-fancy toys Cutie was given when she was a little girl in Egypt.

Taking advantage of their Arclight ticket vouchers from the recent, disappointing viewing of the Joan Rivers documentary "A Piece of Work," Cutie and granddaughter Chinta return to Hollywood to take in the latest convoluted action spectacular, the Christopher Nolan-helmed hit "Inception." Tune in to find out what one 93-year-old lady thought of the film, with an intriguing interlude on the happy dreams that make Cutie's nights a pleasure.

Cutie came to the United States as a young girl, and while she doesn't make a fuss about it, she has strong feelings about what it means to be an American. Let's visit with her at the neighborhood park on the Fourth of July, as she waits for darkness to fall and the fireworks to start flying, for her message to America on its birthday.

I haven't had much experience with Japanese food, because the only fish you'll catch me eating is fried shrimp-- and lox, of course. Or a tuna sandwich, at the Hollenbeck Palms Bistro.

But my grandchildren assured me that there's more to Japanese food than sushi, and that I'd like their version of home cooking. So we came out to give it a try, to a cosy little place upstairs in the Little Tokyo mall where I get my cream puff fix. I liked it from the start, but I like everything that is close to the house.

The decor was nice, lots of old fashioned wooden chests and hanging cloth. I would bring someone on a date here, especially if they like Japanese food or if they are more adventurous, like my husband.

Now the truth is that I ate Japanese food for the first time in restaurants in Los Angeles many years ago, but I haven't kept up the habit. I mostly had the shrimp tempura. It was good. It really had to do with all the sauces. That is the secret of good cooking, no matter what part of the world you're cooking in.

Overall, I was very impressed. We ordered a little of this and a little of that, and I tried all the things that didn't look too strange. One thing that did look too strange was a shredded white snowy radish covered with hundreds of tiny dried fishes. Apparently it's one of the girls' favorites, but not only didn't I taste it, I did my best to pretend it wasn't on the table!

But most of what we ordered, I liked. The miso soup was bland, but very good. The lightly fried tofu chunks in salty sauce were wonderful -- well, I don't know whether I liked the soy sauce or the tofu, but together they make a wonderful dish. I felt similarly about the eggplant, which also had a delicious sauce--whichever the best part was, together they make a wonderful dish.

It's not easy to find a classic French cream puff. The American version is often too sweet and needlessly complicated. Here's what goes in a cream puff: unsweetened choux pastry, a rich cream filling, and a dash of powdered sugar. That's it! It was good enough for Catherine de Medici and it should be good enough for you.

My grandchildren introduced me to this Japanese chain with a funny name, and wanted to know if their cream puffs tasted like France to me. Since the closest store is only five minutes from my apartment, in Little Tokyo, I'd say they're better than France. Plus it's the perfect treat for your grandchildren after they play Dance Dance Revolution at the arcade upstairs, and I get hungry just watching.

What a delicious cream puff. What more is there to say? It is just as it should be, with no funny business. Apparently they do offer other novelty flavors to suit American tastes, but the classic, original cream puff is always on the menu, and it's what I'll order.

I liked the shop. This place is understated and clean. I thought there should be more people standing in line. As we waited for our order, I noticed the unusual logo, a cartoon of a little old man with a big beard. He doesn't make me think of a cream puff, but I don't need a picture to like a cream puff.

You will need plenty of napkins. You might say "I only want half" but if you're like me you will power through. If you bring your family, definitely get a box, it is a better deal.

People who want to satisfy their sweet tooth come here. Families with their chilren. Young men and their girls. Boys and girls who have a dollar in their pocket. If you are younger than me, you can have two.
