throw a black and white party
Untitled 21 months ago

Okay, so I didn’t actually throw it, but I helped set up, so I consider that good enough. What a blast! Just make sure that any underage idiots who show up don’t drunkenly blare, “Are you 21? Are you 21?” to everyone as the cops show up to lodge a noise complaint. SERIOUSLY. Shut. Up.

yum! 21 months ago

I attended a fabulous anti-valentine’s party on the thirteenth, we made sushi (spicy tempeh, “elephant rolls (vegan)”, etc), drank sake, and had a great time. I picked up nori and sushi rice this afternoon and I’m set to make more, mmm!!!
