my summer has been unlike any other. one of the most special parts is spending the few spare moments that i get with great friends. one of them being my wonderful friend Mandy who has been a great part of my self discovery. a week ago she held a little dinner party at her house and it felt so sweet, with more great company. the same crew from the time we went to beer belly’s plus another new friend.
beautiful table set! i was at my very first grown up dinner party. she’s an amazing cook and is the only person, ever in my life who made it be that i could try all of the dishes (she made turkey bacon especially for me!)..she really didn’t need to do that ..but the thought! really!
peek in the background and you’ll see my sangria that i made! (see recipe HERE) there was freshly baked corn bread, corn pasta, chicken with special sauces (the only one i truly remember was the chipotle!) bruschetta, just such awesome food.
aaaand for dessert Kim brought this chocolate creme pie! it was great (especially with a little nut liquor…who are we guys?!) but..yum. it was the perfect ending to a fantastic meal.
credit to Geddes Bakery for the awesome dessert!
Mandy, you’re the greatest! thanks, again for having us! xoxo
