Bowling!

I'm so excited, my friend of work asked me to fill in on his bowling team! I played two weeks ago, so hopefully I will be a bit better. I'm a little nervous though because this team means business, and so does our undefeated competition!

Hahaha, friend sent the group this picture, I just had to share...

J.P Morgan Corporate Challenge!

Today I am running my first 5K in what feels like a 100 years. Well I guess the last one I did was Race for the Cure...when I was in high school. Awesome. It should be fun, we all got funny shirts that say 'Run like you stole something from an online store' haha we are cleaver!

After talking with a few people that have done this race in the years past, it is a bit like running with Cattle, turning corners leads to people walking, and the walkers will go 6 people wide, so this should be more of a social event than anything else - which I think is great for my first 5k!

Also, the weather for this afternoon is hideous. It is supposed to be torrential downpour, lighting and thundering with a chance of hail. Perfect.

Well this should be a fun evening, I'm just looking forward to hanging out with my work friends!

Happy Thursday!

Ohh Gaga!

Thanks DJ for sending me this:

That serves you right Gaga for wearing crazy Matrix outfits with ridiculous heels!

Stephy's first SC

Since S has been to Boston several times, she has only been a guest at SC but because she has ventured up to Boston to live here, now she is officially part of the club! Last night it was first time to cook for everyone and she did an amazing job!

Our Chef:



She had such a cute set up, with delicious apps!



Then she made Parmesan Chicken, with chopped salad and couscous!







It was so good - way to go S!!!

We were talking last night about mixing it up a bit next time.

Ideas:

1. Themed monthly Supper Clubs
2. Secret ingredient for a month (i.e guiness beer or chocolate or something obscure)
3. 'Best of's - making the top notch dishes that were really popular
4. Trading recipes and trying out someone else's dish they already made. I would really like to try and make fish!

So stay tuned...its about to get wild haha

Update on my trip to Baltimore

This past weekend was so intense, non stop eating, drinking, hanging out with family and friends while trying to keep up with all the drama :-)

Thursday night, I was supposed to go see my Dad and get dinner with him. Well that didnt happen, he actually got bit by a spider the weekend before and didn't see a doctor until his entire leg had swelled up and needed to go to the hospital. He stayed there from Wednesday through the entire weekend. Craziness.

So Lizzy and I headed home to see my Mom and eat dinner/drink wine. We ended up staying up pretty late just catching up, which was really nice.

Friday, I woke up and work from home. Then I met up with Abbie for a little shopping (we both are going to weddings the next day). Then go meet up with Mom and Lizzy to get toes done!

Friday night, I meet up with Allison and we head down to Canton. Ahh Canton - such an awesome night! Next time, I'm wearing jeans and a tee - no more cocktail outfits!

Saturday, we head to Havre de Grace for Colins wedding. It was such a nice ceremony and reception. My only complaint is that is was 90 degrees, and the ceremony was under direct sunlight - needless to say, we were all dripping. Then after we head into the Inn where the reception is, and my god - they didnt have any AC either, it was just one sweaty evening!



Then we head to the bar after the reception. That was just filled with more drama, but overall very fun night! We ended up staying at our little hobbit house which was perfect because it was only a block away from the bar everyone was going to that night:



Sunday, we head back to Towson, and meet up with my Dad who luckily just got released from the hospital for crabs and beer.



Night was ended with meeting up with Allison and Abbie getting coffee followed by an early 4am wake up to head to the airport.

Love Baltimore...should probably book my next ticket soon :-)

Upcoming Weekend

I'm heading back down to Balitmore! This time, its for Colin and Jenny's wedding! I've known Colin since we were teeny tiny, and I cannot believe he is getting married! This is the first of many to come of close friends tying the knot.

It works out perfect, because it is also father day's on Sunday. I think Big H wants crabs and beer - sounds good to me!

Apparently it is about 90 degrees and humid, lovely, I've only got shorts, t-shirts and dresses packed for Baltimore!

Hope everyone has a awesome weekend!
