We’re a pretty sane bunch here in SoCal, but there a few things that we do here that people from other states most likely find a little weird. Take a look and see if any of these things sound familiar. I’m totally guilty of number 12. How about you?

2. Putting avocados on EVERYTHING.

From avocado on our toast to avocado on our eggs and even avocado in our pudding -- we just can't get enough of this delicious food!
3. Buying annual passes to Disneyland...

4. Riding a bike at the beach in our nice clothes.

5. Telling people how long it will take to get somewhere in time and not miles.
