I'm back

Took a trip to Boston last weekend to visit some friends and ghosts of grad schools past. I'll post more pictures later.

Party at my place!

Saturday night my boyfriend and I threw a last minute party at our place. There was plenty of food and booze (I typed 'fooze' before correcting), and great company including (e:hodown).

Mmmm Haagen-Dazs select ice cream. Pomegranate chip and Hawaiian Lehua Honey & Sweet Cream. Crack.

Practicing for old age. It's hard to drive a wheelchair with a martini in hand, FYI.

(e:hodown) reenacts the famous Pistachio incident of 2009.

Dear estrip,

Why must you distort our profile pictures so?
I fear you will judge me a pinhead should I post my real mug.
Warmest Regards,
-The Cheese

e:hodown is the best

Jessica arrived at Ladies night last night equipped with hand-stuffed Gorgonzola olives for our martinis. See photographic proof.
image
We first sipped martinis over delicious Kobe beef sliders, mussels, and French bread at a bistro near her office. Then headed to the Grace Hotel in Times Square for subsequent rounds of cocktails. I basically hate Times Square, but this particular bar has a $7 martini happy hour and a swim up bar so I made an exception.
image
We finished off the evening with wine at the super creepy Night Hotel.

Then on the way home, I got locked on a subway car before waiting 45' for a replacement train. When I finally got to my apartment I ate an entire box of cereal before going to bed. Barbara's Peanut Butter Puffins are so delicious. Self control is for suckers!

Ladies Night.

I went out for a lovely meal at one of my favorite West Village restaurants, Tartine, on Friday with (e:hodown) and crew . It's a cute little French place that is BYOB and therefore pretty reasonably priced. Ho and I started the evening with a quality martini at Quality Meats. The woman next to us at the bar (a classy Upper East Side alcoholic) was imbibing a rather curious cocktail - the beef broth martini made from muddled lemon and lime, Campbell's beef broth, and vodka. Some photo highlights:
