Hi Friends,
Part 2 of playing 2012 catch up. In the next few posts, I'll be focusing on birthdays and celebrations. We had some big ones this year, and the year isn't even over!
First up, Brother Birthday. My little brother turned the big 25 this year, and his birthday just happened to fall right on Mariners opening day at Safeco. Turned out, Sounders were in town too, so we turned the weekend into sports-a-palooza. While we didn't get many photos, we had a great time! Some good old fashioned brother/sister bonding. Here are some of the shots we did get:
Started off the festivities at Elysian Fields for a beer, the chocolate stout was like a chocolate cake in a glass!

Then, off to the see the Mariners:
The next morning, we were right back down at the fields, watching the Sounders!
A month and a half later, it was my turn. The birthday of another friend from work fell right around mine, so our fabulous coworkers who threw us a Pinterest Party. What, might you ask, is a Pinterest Party?! Oh the greatest work birthday surprise ever! My beloved friends and coworkers had gathered many of the various recipes we had pinned over the last few months (we're both hot in the Pinterest scene), banded together, and turned our foodie dreams into real life. I have to say, it was pretty great trying all those different recipes without actually having to go through the effort of making each one. Take a look...
From top left to right, I've linked as many as I can find the recipes for!
Avocado & Feta Salsa
Onion and Garlic Dips
Honey Mustard Pretzels
...and some sweet treats...
Raspberry Ganache Cake
Samoas Bars
Fruit topped Cheesecake
It was a day of deliciousness and less work than should have happened, a great way to spend a birthday! After work, Emily and I headed down to Portland for more birthday celebrations... stay tuned!
