it snowed a little yesterday and we're off to another chilly start.
this morning:
highlight of the week!
after feeling suffocated by the bromance blooming before my eyes, i came home to spectacular treats in my mailbox. perfect timing on behalf of chef amanda. pistacio nougaty goodness and hazelnutty chocolate are clear of my lent restrictions. could not have been more perfect. i nibbled away my cares, completely in awe of the delicacies that amanda crafted. how does she do it?
(the candy is on our kitchen counter,which is covered with a game the boys are really into called agrilcola.)
pure heaven!have you spent the entire week wondering how our poker tourny was?
it was a great event. even though it was 'sold out' we were able to swing a tic for the lil' bro. neither patrick nor ryan won the entire poker tournament. ok, neither even made it to any of the final tables. but they did play some good hands.
- the event was held at the cultural center, which is beautiful
- open bar with some delicious wine made both me and the boys happy
(though i had to wake up early the next a.m.) - scrumptious little passed hors d'oeuvres and yummy food buffet; how did it all taste delish and healthy at the same time?
via phone cameraoh don't you worry, they're around. we met up with them last sunday for a "girls have coffee, boys go watch some sports" afternoon. this is christine's coffee:
via phone camerait looks like a fake coffee to me! it was a snickerdoodle latte and i made her put the glass of water in the photo for scale. it was HUGE!
more friday fun - st. patrick's day weekend kick off

i was wondering how patrick did in the poker tournament. so sad he lost.
oh my goodness, i loved them too! simply amazingly delicious. nougats are one of my favs too, she read my mind :)
Green beer! Yum.
Happy Anniversary and Happy St. Patrick's day!
Too bad Patrick did not have the luck 'o the Irish in the poker tourney.
Wow, it's almost your anniversary! The poker tournament looks like lots of fun.
where do you work, and are they hiring? Green Beer at 3:30. Sounds like my kinda gig!
Happy Anniversary!
you know fridays should start at 3:30 every week
such artistic photos!! and sounds like a fun week!
aw, love the shout out!! Such a fun week, and to cap it off with green beer at work makes it even better. Fun!
Thanks for snapping the artistic photo of the nougat. I'm doing my term end portfolio and realized I never took a photo of the nougat, so your finger+flowers+nougat will be in my portfolio. thanks friend!
Totally happy that you're someplace now where alcohol in the workplace is totally acceptable.
Also, lovin' the photos! You've been playing with depth of field! Good work!
