Ask Patty has been invited to some great events taking place during the
L.A. Auto Show this week, and one of them was the GM Design Dinner at
the Simon LA Restaurant at the Sofitel in Los Angeles.
We met with Dave Rand, Executive Director of Design (Interiors), and
Kathleen Zak, Global Design Director, both with General Motors.
Kathleen has the incredibly interesting job of designing the interior
pieces inside those GM cars and trucks! Next time you sit in a General
Motors vehicle and remark on how perfect the seat feels and how nice
the steering wheel design is, you can remember to thank Kathleen!
The
design presentation was top notch and we love the great photos we have
of the interiors and exteriors of the new generations of General Motors
vehicles. There were several bloggers from the automotive blogosphere
present at the dinner so it was a great time to catch up with the
automotive world and all the news out there.
And just for fun, check out the picture of the dessert we were served!
It is called the Junk Food Sampler. For nostalgic '50s kitsch-food
hounds, it's almost too good to be true. Here are rice crispy squares,
pink coconut snowballs with chocolate inside, miniature Twinkies, a bag
of warm chocolate chip and oatmeal cookies, and more, all made with the
best ingredients. Yum!
Check back frequently for our continued updates of the show! We get to meet with Tiger Woods later today so stay tuned!
