dinner in brooklyn

this weekend that just passed i took a drive into brooklyn to make and have dinner for my friends friends birthday. it was so lovely, her name is jaimee and i don't know her too too well, but she's a vegan baker, and my friend jeremy is vegan and i was invited..so it just sounded like a great night.
we went in a little early, with lots of goods from trader joe's that we planed on making. jeremy made a fiesta type dip with guacamole, beans, dices tomatoes with cilantro and some vegan sour cream. i bought some balela to eat with chips, and we made pesto stuffed heirloom tomatoes. oh man were they good! it was fun just to make. they were so deilisous, and te seeds on the inside were this crazy neon green, i had never seen such a thing. it was a great array or raw foods we had going. along with some wine and smokes, and some dancing it was a great night.





heres the tomatoes, they came out so good, and it was a group effort since we had to core all these little buggers and the pesto is home made.

this last one wasn't even from that night. as you can see im wearing something different. but i went in to visit my loves the week before or something and ali snapped this great shot of me.
i know i have linked her on here before, all those winter snow pictures a few posts back are by her. these photos came from her camera, and i do admire her photography. im very lucky to have a good friend to document our time together, its a true gift. you can view her flickr here and here
