a roof top, proposal and dessert




last night was really fun. team d had our christmas party at daniel's house. the weather was wonderful and breezy, cool after the morning rain and the view was beautiful - the city and it's shadows and lit windows. charlotte decorated the place with glass baubles on palms and tea lights along the perimeter of the deck and daniel made roast beef and potatoes with the oven in the pantry at the roof deck - and alas i didn't get to try them because it was so popular. impressive though - the oil glisterning on the potatoes in the sleek oven. i got trigger- happy with my camera. after eric shared his testimonial, he actually got down on his knee and proposed to cheryl. this sounds like a pre-proposal speech, i whispered to hannah when he was talking. hannha was so cute - she was overdressed in her bling necklaces and animal-print shoes. i think it was a truly enjoyable evening.

before the potluck though mingyao and i arrived early so we walked out to balmoral plaza and we sat at the corner pub bojangles and had a beer each. munching on peanuts we sat there in the cool weather and just chilled and talked. that was so nice. i love doing that with you.
