i love my girls!

Last night, Cat, Ash and I went out to celebrate Ashleigh turning the ripe old age of 28.
I know.
SHE’S A BABY.
First, we headed out for tapas, which is pretty much the perfect way to eat from my perspective.
See, I’m easily bored when it comes to food, and I always have trouble planning meals ahead because I love to go to the store to see what’s fresh… and what I might want to eat RIGHT THEN.
(I know… it will all change when I have kids. But kids are WORTH IT.)
Not to mention that, since I really do like everything, I find it hard to choose JUST ONE THING.
But if I can choose what to eat but not have to choose just one thing?
I LIKE IT!
Here are the dungeness crab risotto fritters and the beef steak lasagna we tried last night, among other treats:


The restaurant had a great vibe, too…


Ash, in all her aged glory.
(Sorry about the blur… flash in restaurants might make people drop their forks!)
From there, we headed out to a patio to eat cheesecake and chocolate lava cake. Mmmm!

I LOVE PATIOS!
Seriously, nothing better than good friends, good food, and summertime.
Oh, and new sunglasses:

Hope your weekend is going beautifully!

Ooh! You’re very Sophia Loren in that photo!
So, can we keep summer, or do we have to take it back to the store?

Meg… this is a COMPLETELY UNRELATED and RANDOM (but I’m thinking you’re Ok with that:P) question:
How do you get your hair to grow back fast after a moment of insanity at the hair salon??
I figured you might know the answer. Your hair is always super cute and healthy in photos!
Ps–Bday celebrations looked lovely (especially the food! yum!) and I

Hmm… I have had my times of insanity. The overcuts. The highlights. The layering that was more like sheep shearing. Oh yes.
I figure your best bet is to take a lot of vitamins, massage your scalp a lot, and condition well. That way your body is primed to produce healthy hair, nails and skin, you keep your scalp stimulated and in good shape, and the hair you do have actually shines.
Beyond that? Just be patient. Mine is quite long, and the only way it got there was not worrying about it AND not abusing it with too much processing.
I wish I had better advice!!

Heh- I’d never be accuse of under-processing my hair. [My gays at the salon tell me I’m a Level 8 out of 10 when it comes to the process strength needed.]
Thank you for living the high life so we can live vicariously. Also- I hate to choose and would much rather sample a number of things. There’s probably some parallel to life philosophy in there but I’m too relaxed right now to figure it out.
Cheers!
