<\/a><\/p>\nWe\u2019re throwing a little luau for the girls\u2019 school friends today, so I\u2019ll report back with the details (and will definitely share over on IG stories). The menu: mediterranean chopped salad, grilled lemon chicken, pizza, homemade salsa and chips, artichoke dip<\/a> and crackers, the best tequila sangria<\/a> for the adults, banana pudding cups, gf brownies with peanut butter frosting, and the shaved ice truck is going to be parked in our front yard. It should be pretty epic \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n I\u2019d love to hear what you have going on this weekend!<\/p>\n It\u2019s time for the weekly Friday Faves party!
