{penne frittata}

{coconut cupcakes}

{i heart my friends}

There is nothing I love more than a champagne brunch with my girlfriends... especially when it's to celebrate my birthday! I don't officially turn 25 until Wednesday but I have a feeling it's going to be a really wonderful year.

*Penne frittata and boozy fruit recipes via Cup of Jo.... They were super easy to make and incredibly delicious!
