with all of us going off to different places, this blog is an attempt to stay close. in athens, we were lucky to establish a fun tradition we called supper club- which is exactly like what it sounds- getting together, cooking different recipes, and eating a lot. so even though we are all spread out now, we can still come to this blog, share what is going on, share recipes- from baton rouge to egypt there should be some variety- and just continue on as friends in each other's lives.

Alison & Mary go on dates.

...........with each other.  Tonight I came home from a day of babysitting and Al Pal was mid-preparation of cooking up delicious things and packing a picnic dinner.  Such a good surprise!  The two of us headed over to the mall and sat down where we had a great view of Washington Monument.
We ate jasmine rice with salsa, spinach salad and cucumbers, and marinated bean salad, and drank raspberry soda -and yes, we packed real plates and silverware to eat off of.


Deciding that a picnic dinner was not romantic enough, we walked over to a frozen yogurt place that was delicious-- we may need to revisit this during Girl's Weekend.  The set-up is almost like a buffet- you go down the line and choose between a dozen different flavors.  We split (obviously, being on a date) a Poplar-sized cup (aka huge) with chocolate, strawberry, butter pecan, peanut butter, and coconut flavors.  It was the shiz.
 
We went back to our car, enjoying walking outside in the perfect not-too-warm not-too-cool weather.  It's so fun to wander around a new city and continually have the realization that this is our new home!
We loooove you all and miss you...which brings me to a shout-out to those who've yet to post.

Becca, if I can post on this biatch then I know you can be tech-savvy enough to figure it out.  Please join the blog.  Kk, Seattle pictures pronto and we hear there's good Indian food up there.  Livs, umm did Highwire move??  You should post and update us on the goings-on in Ath since we've been gone (cue Kelly Clarkson).....and that's all we've got.  Sleeeeeep.  Goodnight.
