frolicking and food
it was a gorgeous day yesterday - sunshine and warmth after an odd bout of cold weather. put on our sundresses and had a picnic in one of the gardens on the lawn. the tulips had blossomed and they were pink and huge. the trees were iced with white flowers. there was a little garden set with rocking chairs and all. perfect! (we realised half way into the picnic that it was someone's private garden tho.. oops!)
i spent a couple of hours in the kitchen prior, and whipped up a lethal tiramisu (too much rum, whoops), potato and dill salad, petite sandwiches - cucumber and cream cheese, tuna and pineapple, and ice lemon tea. everyone brought something too - garlic bread and berry muffins, (french) chocolate cake, deviled eggs, succulent strawberries, gm brought caipirinha (alcoholic, of course), vietnamese spring rolls, soup and cheese, wine, durian cake (?!).. i hope i didnt forget anything. it was all de-li-cious. mmph.
i was buzzed by 6 o'clock in the evening. but wat the heck. the caipirinha was soo good. i took some gorgeous pictures, but of course since i was buzzed and not thinking straight, i had to screw it up by opening my camera without first rewinding the film.
happy happy day!
