This weekend my mom and my best friend threw me the most lovely shower. Just a simple affair at my parents' house with a handful of female relatives and girlfriends. We played silly games, talked about weddings and babies, I opened so many overwhelmingly generous gifts. And oh the food... my mom did it almost entirely vegetarian in my honor... we had tea sandwiches, veggie lasagna, quiche, fruit, salads and many other finger foods. Everything was delicious. And we finished it off with tea and tiramisu. She knows what I like...

I threw a surprise graduation party for Tim at Union Hall this weekend. I couldn't be prouder that he finished his Masters program and it was so much fun to celebrate with friends, even if he kinda knew something was up. We also got to be tourists for the weekend with his family who came into town for the ceremony. The complete set is here. Congrats to you, Catts!

So we went to Pittsburgh on a whim this weekend. Tom talked us into it and luckily Jackie didn't object to spending their first wedding anniversary with company. Jer drove us like a champ in the Prius. Tim and I drank too much beer and ate WAY too many fries. So all in all a fantastic time.

This was our first real meal at Primanti Brothers where tomatoes, cole slaw and french fries come on every sandwich. Holy heart attack.
