Monterey Jack cheese, fresh mozzerella, and tomatoes are the perfect condiment for a freshly grilled beef patty... 

Grilling the bread...

I think I'm up coz I'm stressed

I think I'm still up past midnight on a school night because I'm stressed. B and I started seriously checking out reception places last week and this past weekend and man oh man. Man oh man we are going to be spending some serious cash. Man oh man. Part of the stress also is the damn freaking guestlist that somehow ballooned from 150ppl to 200+. How do these things happen? I'll tell you how. Mom. That's how these happen. And on Saturday, after we looked at this one place I just ADORED, I felt this resentment toward her that I really didn't want to feel. Because I know I'm the only daughter, and I know this is important to my parents, and I know that they want to share this with people whot are important to them (and yes I sincerely believe she believes they should be important in my eyes too). *sigh* Dang Titas and Titos and Ates that are not blood related. How did so many people who have no blood relation to me become a part of my family. Thankfully, despite this insomnia inducing stress, I feel more blessed than cursed by this dilemna. *sigh*

E on Tuesday night Arki meeting at Mooncake (that B and I nearly missed!) 

B and I hadn't seen these two Arki folk in a million years (not counting seeing L at my bday) and then we hang out with them twice within days of each other, hehe...being together got our creative juices flowing again:) This is at Odessa Restaurant at about 1:30am Saturday... 

Shirley's bday dinner (sitting next to her man, hehe) at Ruby Foo's on the upper west side. 

Kayla's bday party. I lured this shy girl out of her sister's room by letting her see herself on my cam's viewer, hehe... 

B's chickens at the Queens County Farm :P 

We won't be able to go to P's wedding in Tuscany so this is the next best thing:) Why did I keep my green coat on for this pic!?

Grapevines as far as the eyes can see...
