great food...great friends...and great drinks!

last night was the weekly “dinner with s. bux” – it was my turn to cook – and of course, every good meal is inspired by a potato of some kind…last night’s potato of choice was TWICE BAKED (the ultimate twice baked potato to be EXACT)! further discussion of our potato side dish led us to burgers – with bacon and avocado and pepper jack cheese. DELICIOUS! j ended up joining us along with drew and it became an all out GOOD TIME! we started the evening off with margaritas (apparently steven makes them strong – he uses patron – that makes them TASTY!) and then sat down for dinner and a second beverage! we LAUGHED continuously throughout the meal and didn’t get any real pictures because the food was so good we just had to EAT IT – there was no time for patience no hope of picture taking. absolutely none. we finished the evening off with yet another beverage and HEAPING bowls of chocolate malted crunch ice cream from thrifty. let’s stop there for just a second –thrifty – one of the happiest place on earth (not to be confused with Disneyland – THE happiest place on earth or Disneyworld – the happiest CELEBRATION on earth) probably the ONLY place on earth that you can still get an ice cream cone for $1.29 and their flavors are TO DIE FOR. literally. bananas. I have some trouble with the lactose and I don’t even care. I LOVE THRIFTY ICE CREAM! With the ice cream gone all that remained were LOTS of dishes and a clean dishwasher…so we unloaded and suds up and reloaded and washed and left to soak and then we all went home (well I was already home – so I took a shower – and watched top chef) and crashed. SO MUCH FUN! so glad for this stage in life – for great friends – great food – great drinks – and GREAT memories!
