is it just me, or does anyone else feel like they need a three day weekend to recover from their three day weekend?
we celebrated my friend morgan on saturday in west los angeles and some of our best girls flew in for the festivities. we visited all our old stoping grounds, dressed head to tow in 80's gear. and
while i was terrible at taking photos, let me assure you that my group was committed.
i was supposed to head home sunday for a productive day of recovering on my couch with football and my husband, but the girls convinced me to stay up in la for one more night of dinner and dancing. they know i'm a sucker for a night of dancing.
so instead of attacking my monday, i zombied through it. and i'm ready for rest and a bit of a detox. bring on the greens!
salads are wonderful and can be so beautifully seasonal. i'm soaking up every last second of pomegranate season with this easy, bright salad.
