(Getting the CM icebreaker tags + notebooks ready & exterior of SQUIRL LA)
Who’s ready to talk food with Squirl KItchen tomorrow at LA/CM? See you there!
The video from last month’s LA/CM with Yo Santosa is now up. Thanks to Levi Obery for shooting and editing.
Registration is now open for next Thursday’s LA/CreativeMornings! This month’s theme: food.
Jessica Koslow is the founder of, the restaurant and preserves company, Sqirl. The Long Beach-born jam-maker spent time working in pastry at the James Beard award-winning restaurant Bacchanalia in Atlanta, Georgia. When she returned to California, Jessica was attracted to the diversity of local produce – beautiful and honest snapshots of the state’s vigorous growing seasons.
Her preserves are made without shortcuts. In order to maintain the brightness of the fruit a batch can take up to three days to produce. The results are meticulously crafted preserves that not only portray the wealth and diversity of California’s crops and its generous seasons, but also remind us of the value in the antique process of preservation. Sqirl – it’s the jam.
Her restaurant, Sqirl Kitchen, continues to receives accolades and rave reviews. Recently, it was listed in the LA Times top 101 restaurants in LA and it was the #2 choice from LA Times readers as the restaurant they most want to visit.
People don’t fall in love with businesses. At the end of the day, they fall in love with personalities.
- Yo Santosa, Founder of FERRO CONCRETE
“If I can be just a little part of the inspiration of future thinkers, leaders, and discoverers, I feel like I’ve done my job.”

In February’s LosAngeles/CreativeMornings, Joel Arquillos of 826LA talks about running a non-profit… and a little bit of time travel.
We run a time travel store…They look through the window in the speciality refrigerator, between the robot milk and dinosaur eggs, and that sucks them in.
