January 1st: the only day of the year when the government sanctions our hangovers with paid time off. After overindulging in bottles of cheap champagne and a river of Red Bull vodkas, there's nothing better than an oversized midday meal to soothe your aching head and rumbling tummy.
And if your cranky, sunglassed dining companion starts ruining your morning by bitching about her ill-fated weight loss resolution - you have our permission to plug her pie hole with a scrumptious muffin.
Happy New Year.
