Have I ever said how much I love my best friends back in NYC? No? Well there. I'm saying it now. They are the most awesomest friends anyone could ask for. First, for my going away, they procrastinated and spent a hung-over morning finishing a scrapbook for me before brunch. And not just any scrapbook, a RECIPE scrapbook!

And I'm making my way through the rest of these at an unhealthy pace of koala bears and mini asian snacks last night. But fear not! Salad this weekend. Muchas gracias a mis amigos!
