Yargh. Last 24 hours was pretty excitin'.
Zoe had this daydream of having like 20 of our friends over for a fanypants brunch, so me and Sasha and Kelso came over to prepare. We ended up going shopping and spending, I kid you not, five or six hours going grocery shopping in random places that included the liquor store (because every cool recipe we had contained alchohol) the thrift store and various grocery stores. We got home around 10 at night, convinced her mom to make us drinks, got tipsy, and cooked until 3 in the morning. We then proceeded to crash until 6:30 when Zoe the nocturnal robot who needs no sleep forced us out of bed and made us keep cooking. By 10:00 we had made coffee, blueberry sandwiches (little bites of heaven with cream and blueberries soaked in sugar and rum) rum-soaked raspberry crepes, deviled eggs, lemon waffles with pudding, several cakes, fancy fruit salad which also happened to be soaked in rum, and lots and lots of orange juice w/ champagne - mimosas I think they're called. Of the 20 people we invited, 11 showed up, and a little less than half the mountain of food we had prepared got eaten. Several of us were also understandably giggly. whee xd
The funniest part of it all was Zoe's mom in the beginning saying, and I quote, "I'm letting you guys have a SIP! Just a SIP EACH!" A couple hours later, when Zoe's dad came home: "Quick guys! Drink it all! I don't want my husband seeing!" xd
Anyways, much revelry (and some headaches xp ) was had by all.
P.S. A warning: I'm a fast reader, and when I get my little claws on Deathly Hallows tomorrow, I'm streakin' through it in a day or two and then posting the two people that die in my journal. So if you read slow, DON'T LOOK.
