Check It. 30 Scoops in 30 Days.

We featured LA Weekly's Elina Shatkin's ambitious feat of writing about 30 burgers in 30 days back in the day, but alas, she's done it again. This time, it's season- and weather-appropriate: 30 Scoops in 30 Days.

That's right: she's got the lowdown on all the big ice cream, gelato and frozen yogurt spots all over town, and it'll probably help you decide on where to indulge in that icy goodness next. It's perfect timing, really. Check out her nifty map and guide here. Happy scooping!

Eat Out. 30 burgers in 30 days.

Okay, we're not really telling you to eat out with 30 burgers in 30 days. That would be pretty crazy. But LA Weekly's Elina Shatkin has taken on such a challenge -- or at least is writing about it in that amount of time. More than halfway through, she's already proven all the awesome burger options L.A. has to offer, from the well-known Counter and Apple Pan to a spot in Koreatown.

Divulge in the gluttony here -- a true indication of the pains through which journalists suffer for the sake of good reporting, if you will.
