Another fun filled weekend for the books! Friday night we chilled out and I got into a cleaning frenzy and decided to organize all the loose paperwork and bills that were floating around the house. I finished filing the 2008 junk and made a tidy bankers box for all the 2009 paperwork. It felt very cleansing to clear up the clutter.
Saturday I headed to the gym and then the grocery store to pick up the last items for my new cake recipe. I made a gluten-free, dairy-free coconut chocolate chip cake that came out amazing! I also tried out a raw recipe for "pirogi." It calls for a jicama sliced extremely thin and a stuff of cashews, soy sauce, garlic and red bell pepper. T introduced me to the fun and healthy appetizer and it is so addicting! Saturday night was our aunt's 50th birthday which was an appropriately themed 50's party! Our uncle called in a favor and had 2 hot rods from the 1950's brought in and we all took a dozen photos in and around the cars. I donned a poodle skirt and pink top as well as homemade saddle shoes! Elvis made an appearance, as well as Fidel Castro, and lots of Pink Ladies and Greasers. We danced the night away until well past 2am when we finally called it a night. Dancing the hand jive and hula-hooping takes a lot out of you!
Sunday we got up at the crack of dawn (okay, 8am) to get ready for E & E's babies baptism. It was so special to share in that occasion, and I even got to be the official videographer and photographer! We were exhausted so we skipped the brunch and headed home where we proceeded to nap until 5pm. We finally got up to eat some dinner and watch mindless TV. Whew, I need a weekend to recover from this weekend!
