Halloween Party

The last three weeks have been a bit crazy, with two scientific meetings (and presentations to prepare for both), pretty heavy workloads in the lab, and a great costume/cocktail party for my birthday last weekend.



We had 22 people show up, mostly in costume, for a great party in our small apartment on Halloween. We had pomegranate martinis, strawberry daquiris, lots of wine and some great food. Melissa made her beef stew with polenta (previously posted), sausage rolls, homemade pate and bloody fingers (hot dogs with almond sliver fingernails).

Jawdat and Zee brought some great cupcakes which stood in as birthday cake, and a good time was had by all.

We were too busy playing hosts to take photos, so thanks to Jawdat, Zee and Uhn-Soo for keeping their cameras handy.

We'll soon get back to posting some new dishes now that things have settled down a bit for now...
