Yesterday I was treated to a surprise birthday brunch by my amazing friends, Bonnie, Kelley, Audrey, Carrie, Bri, and Jen at Lazy Ox Canteen in downtown LA. The tapas-style brunch included a tasty mix of Meyer Lemon Pancakes, Ricotta Fritters, super chunky Fries, and a birthday Caramel & Hazelnut Rice Pudding…yum! There's nothing better than good food with good friends… — Joy

  6. Holy cow, this looks amazing! Even more so since I started the clean program today. I apologize if I don’t read for the next 20 days as I know it will be quite a temptation 😉

    going out on a limb and taking a guess that this will be your best year ever. babies just have a way of bringing it.
