Weekend Update: A 3 Day Bender

On Thursday evening, Amanda had a few of us over for a fiesta! She and her mom made two types of margarita mixes, sangria, and a bunch of food. The sangria recipe she used was from the Dos Caminos cookbook she got in NYC. For the recipe, visit her blog post where she did a sneak peak on the sangria.

Amanda did a wonderful job decorating with flags, Mexican men posters, and moustaches. Here are Jordan and Lauren rocking the staches. Sexy.

Kira, our vegetarian friend,  brought “fake meat” for her tacos. Jordan and I had to sample it. We were skeptical…

but it actually tasted pretty good! I think she said it was by Morningstar.

On Friday night, Amanda, Mary and I met up with some other girls for dinner at Leaf, a new restaurant in the old Vickery’s. I love love love this place. It is so pretty inside and I loved the atmosphere.There were so many good looking items on the menu, but I opted for two appetizers because I simply could not resist them.

BEETS!!!!!

AND FRICKLES!!!

I told our server that I knew this was a disgusting combination of food, but as they are two of my favorites, I needed them. With champagne, please. He was very sweet and even let me pop my bottle myself. And did not judge! I will be back.

And if you’re gagging at my combo, gag some more. This isn’t the first time I’ve done this.

Exhibit A, May 4th, 2011: snack from my work cafeteria:

I am grossssssssssssssssssssssssssssss. What’s the grossest food combo you love?

On Saturday, I went on the boat with some boy friends. Note the space between those two words. Look at this pasty white boy! I’ll update you on his skin tone in June; he should have some color by then.

It was a beautiful day!

Later that night we all had a cookout then went to the bar. I spotted this drunk dude dancing outside of the bar. Hot shirt!

Hope everyone has a great week!
