Some post detox chowing down

 Mere hours after I followed the detox diet and ate this kale/beet/bean/caper concoction...

...(and lost 10 pounds, by the way)...

 ...I found myself at Wooster's South Market Bistro with this incredible duck dish with sweet potato gratin and spinach.

 Julia got the fried chicken with sriracha-honey sauce.

The following day, we did our best to burn off these decadent delights by walking around the mall with Rocky and the kids...

 ...acquainting Max with Santa...

...and chasing him around the pet store...

...so that we could also enjoy more grub at Samurai in the forms of steak tartare...

 

 ...and sushi.

But it was Sunday morning when we really got crazy...

 ...thanks to the Feve's pumpkin roll pancakes...

 

...with real pumpkin slivers and cream cheese frosting.

I would have gained all 10 pounds back...

 

 ...if Max didn't help me eat it.
