a special, little dinner party

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.

IMG_3465beautiful 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!

Beer Belly’s

so my busy schedule has prevented me from exploring as much as i’ve really wanted to this summer in syracuse. but this weekend, i discovered an awesome new foodie spot on westcott called “Beer Belly Deli & Pub.” it’s a neat spot with a nice outdoor patio and rustic look on the inside that just makes you feel like a cool gal. 

the menu has an awesome beer selection- who do i really think i am?…haha and a fascination for pickles and eggplant. if that’s not the coolest thing you’ve ever heard of…i don’t know what is.

and what topped it all off? amazing company. hanging out with an old/new friend you hadn’t seen in a while and developing new friendships, introducing these friends…and just being around positive, supportive women. i’m pretty blessed. i ❤ you Mandy & Kim.
