Let me float in off of my cloud to send you all some love. Finally I have pics galore to share. I am going to break down the birthday bliss before I head off the continue the celebration. So last night was the dinner at none other than Au Lac. I had some work friends flake, but Karma Free Joshua was there waiting for us. After awhile we where joined by my best bud Carlen, who I've known since 3rd and we have been best buds since 8th grade and her buddy Lida, who is a crack up. Carlen is the only person that I keep around from childhood, and likewise for her. We had a sister connection, growing up as nearly the only two single parent kids in Yorba Linda. I have taken Carlen to Au Lac before and she loved it right off the bat and dove into the raw dishes. For Lida it was a first time experience. I was glad to see her be really open minded, and thanks to Joshua we where able to help them choose the best dishes. Mom and Kaj showed up too and dove into their usual- coconuts and curried guac. A few other friends made it too, including David who has been my student assistant at work for about two years. We quickly became buddies and he is the one who actually introduced me to my prince charming. Being that it was my special day. I took the plunge and ordered the infamous Green Pyramid. It's a decadent sprouted rice dish that I have always wanted to try. Since our group ended up being pretty large we moved into the private room and Ito had some of his other friends join us. We had fabulous dessert -as always. Then we were joined by Pineapple Head, Vanilla Bean, Govinda and a new friend Sophie. Sophie actually brought an amazing raw cake. It was a chocolate mint flavor with a very intricate key lime design on it. Everyone was blown away. It had the texture of real cake, but it was raw. Apparently it took about 10 hours to make. I felt so honorer to have these special birthday surprises. There was also a big group of people from Canada from the
Sunrider company. None of us had heard of the company, but apparently they make some amazing stuff. One gal gave us all a dab of some type of essential oil- that literally cleared my sinuses in the most amazing way. After some more mingling and Kombucha drinking it was time to head to the next location. A chiropractors office. Uh-huh. You heard me right right down the street in good old Fountain Valley there is a chiropractor's office that stays open till 4am! They were doing some free scans on antioxidants- so we all tested. I was glad to get an A on my birthday- I didn't need to buy any of the supplements they were promoting. The boys jammed on the guitars for awhile, Vanilla bean sang. People ate more cake, exchanged massages and jumped on a trampoline. To finish off the night I got the most intense adjustment in my life. Which was well over due- about 6 years at least and I do have not the best posture. So now it is nice to know that I have a local raw chiropractor that is open till 4 am. As I drove Austin and David home they complained like babies about the adjustment. I don't know if it was toxins moving through the body or the fact that I have been through more pain than that (childbirth!) but they freaked me out with the way they freaked out. At the end of it all I came home sore, but soaked in Ito's essential oils- not wanting the night to end. I almost got Austi to take an early morning bike ride with me. Well thats about it. I am so glad that I finally got the huge birthday celebration that I always wanted. Now I am off to make an aloe smoothie for everyone, and then we will go check out some tattoo shops. I think I am finally ready to get my lion.
Love you all!
Bliss- Blessings- Love!

Looks like you had a blast. I have to remember to end my next birthday with a Chiropractic adjutment.
Cheers!
One of my best friends from college is from Yorba Linda and is just a few years younger than you. It would be so random if you knew her :P
Hmm, if she is younger then I doubt it. Do you know if she went to El Dorado of Esperanza High?
Everything looks so fun and the food looks amazing! What's with that cake? Whoa! And you my dear are as gorgeous as ever.
And Yorba Linda. I lived there during my elementary years. Went to Mabel Paine elementary (is it even still there?) and lived at 4141 Ricardo Drive. ha ha! Can't believe I remember that address. It's THE only one I remember from any of the places I've lived at.
Thanks for sharing your lovely day! And that aloe leaf was perfect!
I didn't know you where a Yorba Linda kid. I went to Mable Paine too! I am pretty sure it is still there. Thank you. Thank you!
Okay, so now how's this for weird? But I believe my older sister and bro went to El Dorado. Of course not in the same decade as you but small world I say!
