Food and Fun

David and I met up last week for a great dinner at the Melting Pot. We ended up spending three hours there and had one of the best meals ever! The chocolate fondue was my favorite part. (Tara, next time we are together, I am going to do a fondue dinner for you like this -- four courses! ) David loved it, especially the shrimp. We had a great day, and I even got some bread pans from Williams-Sonoma! Liv, I bet you already have some :)

I have been spending some time with a great family here. Chad and Tamara are the parents, and they have three little boys. They definitely have their hands full, but somehow they have made time for me to come over and have dinner or just hang out. Their house is always lively. We even sang karaoke the other night, and Tamara taught me how to moonwalk. We had a great dinner night last night, and Chad topped it off with homemade milkshakes! Mmm!

I love my kitchen and have been exploring the world of baking/cooking alot recently. Here is a favorite dish from Greece with beans, tomatoes, onions, and loads of spices. It turned out quite well which was exciting for me. I lived on that dish for a month. The other is an Irish Soda Bread recipe I got from my best friend's grandma. It was quite tasty, and I made a honey butter that complimented it well. Yes, this is definitely geeky, but I enjoy it.

Also, congratulations to my best friend Tara! She recently opened a theatre company, and they had their opening show last weekend. I am so proud of her and pray it is successful.
