It's Friday. Thank goodness. I'm heading soon to Josephine House for a girls' lunch before I spend the afternoon in as much sunshine as my mind can handle. Trying Qui tonight for dinner...looking forward to sharing that experience with you. Until then, I've been dying to share my new favorite smoothie recipe! I crafted the drink for Camille Styles' Bottoms Up series last week with the new in-season staples in mind: mango and papaya.
Check out the full post here, or view the recipe below ::
