burnin’ down the house

a little late to be writing this, but i’m gonna post about friday night anyways. the night started off w/ going to Blowfish Sushi w/ caryn to celebrate her birthday. now i’ve been to that place once before and remember it being pretty good, but on friday night, the food was fucking incredible. everything we ordered was the bomb. awesome mojitos, delicious sushi, and this super good ostrich appetizer. now, i haven’t eaten any red meat whatsoever in a long long time (it’ll be 2 years in july), and i *totally* crave it. i practically start drooling every time i see a steak commercial on tv. so eating this ostrich, which tastes pretty damn close to red meat, was sooooooooo good!!!

after dinner we went to check out yan’s house party. it had a “circus sideshow” theme to it and people were supposed to dress up. i totally have a love/hate thing w/ costume parties. i hate dressing up, but i love to watch other people dress up. and also, at parties where everyone dresses up, it always seems like people just get way more wild. so anyways, i did the absolute bare minimum to dress up by wearing a dorky blue hat that cost me 7 bux at a costume shop, caryn brought her old-school harmony crayon costume, and we were on our way.

the party ended up being hella fun. a lot of the people were dressed up and the place was decorated pretty funny w/ powerpuff girl dolls on these fake trapeze things etc. there was one girl who was going to do a fire eating performance. right in the middle of her act, someone accidentally kicked over the fuel and next thing we know, a *huge* section of the room just goes up in flames! it was so crazy!!

yes, that picture was taken *inside* the house. people were scrambling everywhere trying to put out the fire w/ towels etc. the whole room had just lit up. so, it didn’t take them all that long to put the fire out, and i dont think anything in the house really got burnt, it was only the fuel…. but it was still pretty damn exciting!

  5. Oh nonononono! =(

    You can post the before and after pics, if you reeeally want to… as long as you delete the during pics and pretend they never existed.

    (and thanks for removing that one… you’re too sweet!)

  6. I find that using lamb is a pretty good second choice for beef. I made a goulash the other day with lamb and it felt like I was eating beef.

  7. …only lamb’s red meat as well, and therefore Vlad cannot (will not) eat it. Mmmmmm – laaaaaammmb!

    Ba ba,
