Tuer le Temps

Crème Brûlée

This was a friend gathering which turned into a tumblr meet-up of sorts. I always see things on tumblr about tumblr gatherings, but never been to one, but I’m going to count this crème brûlée making/ board game playing night as one even if we already know each other haha

And here are my ladies of tumblr as seen from left to right: Rachel, Bethany (executive chef for the night), Sam, Christine, and our lovely hostess Lauren

Birthday Excursion Part Two

Got me a frosty mug of cream soda!

Death by Chocolate: chocolate cake, white chocolate mousse, chocolate cake, dark chocolate mousse, chocolate cake over chocolate sauce topped with an extra rich chocolate icing.

Death by chocolate? Spilled milkshake?

What the Birthday Boy drank. Word around the table is that it did not taste like honey- Winnie the Pooh would be disappointed

It was a night of good friends, good food, and great locations. Thanks for having some awesome digs Houston!!

One month anniversary of Sam’s 22nd Birthday

This summer has been filled with fun and friends- here are some pics from my lovely Sam’s birthday party [albeit a month late haha]

Red velvet cheesecake brownies. And, yes, they were as delicious as the name implies

Word at the party was that this watermelon had a higher alcohol content then all the drinks

How I wrapped my prestent [Tell All by Chuck Palahnuik]. I had no real wrapping paper!!

Shots made from the dangermelon and a lemon drop

Cheers for the birthday girl!!

Omnomnom wedding cake!

Waiter, there is too much pepper in my paprikash…

…but I would be proud to partake of your pecan pie

This pie is brought to you by Novak Djokovic making a comeback from two sets down and winning three straight sets against Roger Federer! I call this Three Straight Sets Pie [even if William Sonoma calls it Maple-Pecan Pie]

[p.s. for those who haven’t seen the best romantic comedy of all time, here’s the reference:
