Annie + Dave were kind enough to have a bunch of us over for a home-cooked, Indian-themed dinner party.

There was food all over the house and lots of good eats to be found.

Kelsey + Emily – happy eaters!
I have some photos of food, but unfortunately, have no idea what I ate. It all tasted delicious, though!

Kath’s rice pilaf.
And since I don’t know what anything is…I bring you some delicious-food-photos (sans descriptions)…






My bowl. So good…especially with that cucumber sauce!

Hey Kath! Don’t you love her dress?

Kath and I tried to play with the cats…

…but they were both hiding.

Group shot…so cute how we all dressed for the event.

I wore a sparkly, super-bright, yellow top…it’s not “Indian” (duh!) but I thought the color was pretty and kinda sorta went with the theme.
We missed half of the dinner party who took off before we got our group shot, but hopefully, we’ll catch them next time.

The sun was setting as I was leaving and the lighting was making everything look so photogenic…even these stairs. I couldn’t help but snap a shot.

I got one of the city skyline in the background with the setting sunlit horizon.

I dug into my Soy Creamery chocolate ice cream sandwiches treats in the freezer for a quick dessert…yum!
Thanks Annie and Dave for the most-delicious dinner party!
Since I have a post in need of being blogged up next, here’s a quick recap from Sunday…

Hubby and I did some serious house-hunting on Sunday. We met our real estate agent somewhat early, so I had my breakfast to go – a piece of Great Harvest Dakota toast with Barney Butter, a not-so-green smoothie, and plenty of water. We went out for a few hours and found some houses with good potential. We need to think about the houses some more, though.

Later in the day, I solo’ed it to meet up with Kath , Matt , Kelsey , Kate, Nate , Caitlin, Jason, and Conor at Pops in the Park – an outdoor symphony event.
I left my camera at home (put the camera in the wrong purse…doh!)…good thing I had my iPhone! Though, I did manage to accidentally post a photo on someone’s FB page instead of mine…oopsie!

I brought some super yummy Gorgonzola & Artichoke Cheese Spread from a local fave spot – Pasta & Provisions . Love them! Love this dip…wow! Who knew I liked Gorgonzola cheese so much?

Check out that spread! I filled my plates up with lots of yumminess including some of Kelsey’s delish pasta salad.

Oh, and Kath and Matt brought the perfect summer picnic item – Gazpacho! It was so perfectly cool, with a nice texture and slightly spicy flavor. Mmm…

Conor brought his homemade Italian doughnuts…

…with 3 (count em, 3!) dipping sauces: chocolate, raspberry, and raspberry-chocolate.

I had one doughnut per sauce, plus one extra of my fave – the raspberry!

Kath managed to get some delicious coconut-pecan cake from a neighboring picnic and was kind enough to share some with us. Yay! Thanks K!

The weather was hot and humid, but the night was fun with a little Italian red wine and Italian music playing in the background.

Kath let me borrow this group shot (Thanks!).
Fun times, guys…let’s do this again next year, if not sooner!
