Girl's night out (this was a few months ago)
This post is for my friend, Courtnie; who I haven't seen since May. She was in Romania on an Augsburg band trip when I left for New Zealand. And the day before I came home she left for California! (I thought I was going to be home before she left). She's doing a research program at Berkeley for the summer, I'm so proud of her! She's done August 1st and I'm so excited to see her. I love you Courtnie!




There she is, hello gorgeous!

Aquatennial parade
On Wednesday night, Allen and I went downtown to the annual Aquatennial torchlight parade on Hennepin Ave. I had never been before (not that I can remember anyways) and there were a ton of people. The parade was really long and I had to go to the bathroom the whole time! I was going to use an outhouse, but a lady angrily came up and told me that the back of the line was that way. I said sorry and we kept walking. As with most parades (at least here in MN) the police are at both the beginning and end of the parade.
MN's finest
Minneapolis police band



Cops on horses, notice a theme here?

It was a perfect night for a parade! I'm not quite sure how to change my camera's shutter speed or anything, but I like how these photos turned out. One thing that we didn't see in the parade were any bagpipers. I love bagpipers in parades so I was a bit disappointed. It was still fun though!
More food
1st batch of mashed potatoes (a potato masher would have come in handy...ha!) But they were really good. I also roasted the garlic (in aluminum foil) along with the chicken. It was really good on the potatoes, but really garlicky!

1st chicken I've made besides drummies

Allen liked it a lot
Banana bread- take II (I doubled the recipe, can you tell?)
