weekend in review

• yes it's wednesday, and weekend in review blogs should probably be on monday. but oh well.

• friday: happy hour and dinner out for my friend liz (liz is on the right in the photo below) who is moving to chicago this weekend. she got an awesome job working for kerri foods, so we are proud of her! but we are still sad she is leaving. i am working on convincing her to start a blog.... while we were there we ate some delicious nachos (below), and had a lot of good laughs, note below: chris stole some steak from lauren's salad and then dropped it in his beer...
• saturday: worked in the morning, a little design then some real estate. then sean and i cleaned our house like crazy in preparation for our little party. lauren graduated from law school on saturday! and we had a small gathering at our house, liz (resident pastry chef) made creme brulee and we played beer pong on our front lawn...classy. we had other tasty foods including some hummus, brownies, veggies and dip and some home made salsa that i made.
• sunday: i held an open house, it was so dreary and only 5 groups came, good thing i brought my book because they all showed up in the last half hour.
  

• i just finshed book #3 in the janet evanovich, stephanie plum series - such chick lit. i love it!
• sunday afternoon we painted the walls in our hall, we still have to do the trim and hang the light so photos then!

• homemade salsa recipe:
• 3 large tomatoes
• 1 clove of garlic
• 1/3rd of a medium size red onion
• 1 tbsp of lemon juice
• half of a medium sized hot pepper (your choice depending on how much heat you like, mine was pretty mild)
• chop everything and mix together, make sure to take the seeds out of the pepper first unless you want a ton of kick, i didn't have my food processor so mine was more of a chopped salsa, but you can zap it in the food processor a couple of seconds!
  

whew - we had a busy weekend. this upcoming weekend should be even more insane...
