Best Friends Forever

Last week Best Friend and I celebrated our Best Friend Anniversary. We met in Junior high and became Best Friends when we were High School Freshmans. To celebrate, we had Afternoon Tea at the Huntington Tea Room, my favorite tea place of all time.

We sat in the Herb Room by the window which overlooks the herb garden.

I should have taken more pictures of the delicious petite sandwiches but I was too busy eating them. Why is this tea room my favorite? It is all you can eat!

At least I remembered to get a photo of the yummy desserts.

The first time I saw my Best Friend she sat behind me in P.E. She had on thick braces and coke bottle glasses. She was shy.

It was a perfect match because I like to jibber jabber and eventually she opened up.

The day we decided to be best friends, we bought a cheap heart charm that with the words Best Friend inscribed on it that we can split in half. Though I have no idea what happened to that crappy charm, every year we celebrate that day and I feel so lucky to have
a Best Friend to go through life with.

BFF's Always!

I had a really fun super duper awesometastic brunch today with my oldest and dearest friends. Best friend and I went to Rose Cafe in Venice and met our friend Rita. I've known Rita since 5th grade and we were pretty tight back then especially during the our stint as girl scouts. (Girl Scout Troop 160 whoooo hoo!) I lost touch with Rita from 1990-2009 and we found each other thanks to Facebook.

It was so much fun talking and laughing loudly and reminiscing about good ol' days and gossiping about High School boys and crushes we had!

I lived in L.A all my life and in the Westside for the last 8 years and never been to Rose Cafe.

Boy have I been missing out! They have delicious food, great coffee and mouth watering desserts.

I almost wished we didn't gab so much about boys long gone so I can focus on my eating.

I had this out of this world Salmon Florentine. Sooooooooo gooooooood.

I fully intend on going back there with my sister very soon and maybe walking around Venice Beach after.

The best thing about old friends is that they take you back to a place of your youth and you can be how you were with them. Its just like being a kid again.
