Time passes quickly here in the city, so much so that a couple months can fly by in what feels like a blink of an eye. That said, I'm still on my 100 kitchen quest and have a few different delicious meals that I'd like to try to recreate and will hopefully be posting soon!
In the meantime, here's a snippet of a more free-style nature. Our good friends, Keavy and Bill, decided to sneak off last month and get hitched. Needless to say we are all extremely happy for them! In fact, I've been trying to think of a way to merge their two names to make a single, tabloid headline-ready title (i.e. "Brangelina" or "Bennifer"), but it's a tough one to work with. The best I can do is "Beavy", which sounds like an eastern European name for a steer...
However, we did decide to give them a small congratulatory pizza party! They were even kind enough to whip up some delicious gin-sour cocktails. It was a great time. In the end I ended up making 5 pizzas that turned out nicely, with a fair amount of experimentation. Here's wishing all the best to "Beavy"--they're great folks and I'm sure they'll have many happy years to come!
