Dinner Party

Here are some photos from a dinner party at my parents' the other night. Dennis and I constructed the menu and made the meal. :) It was a really lovely night.




Breaded and fried tofu with crushed chile pepper, barbecue sauce, and green onions.









Baked asparagus with olive oil, garlic, pumpkin seeds, lemon juice, salt and pepper.







Edamame!



Corn and edamame-sesame salad with toasted black sesame seeds, sesame oil, rice vinegar, soy sauce and salt in radicchio cups.




Everything together









The fellas






Brownies with peanut butter cream cheese frosting that my mom made. So good!









I've been lazy about taking photos of new outfits. But I plan on taking some soon!

Also, I recently found out that I was a finalist for the Rita Dove Poetry Award for one of my poems, which is pretty exciting! I don't get a publication or anything of that sort but I do get my name on a website: http://www.salem.edu/community/cww/2012-international-literary-awards. I also submitted a short story to the Hobart Buffalo Prize (crossing my fingers for the results!). Hope you're all enjoying the nice weather.
