Have a wonderful weekend! Thanks again for joining me in my birthday giveaway celebration and congratulations to the winners: Galit, Kacie, Eden and Jules!

I’ll be whining my face off cleaning out the basement this weekend–it has really become a beast. I’ll also be–finally (I swear!)–ordering this juicer AND trying to seek out some carrot recipes because our weekly CSA farm share has been a big carrot fennel party. Any recipes are much appreciated!! xx Jen
