We walked up to the 4th floor in an old historic home in Toronto's West End and were overwhelmed with love and beauty when they opened the door and greeted us, it was like wild butterflies were let out and were spreading their wings to welcome us. I don't think I have ever felt more welcomed or loved into someone's home. You guys really are truly special friends for life! SFFL, I just made that up!
Here's the spread... berries, homemade dark chocolate bark, organic white extra old cheddar cheese (yes, I had to police it for Melanie... again- she can't get enough of it), organic crackers, carrots and humus. Oh, and the host and hostess with the mostess posing like goofy maniacs... Szos and Jenny.
And the 'piece de resistance'... Szos' Guacamole, which was so delicious, I already shared the recipe with you last week.
Here are our girls with their 'fashionista flowers' in their hair.
The tea, which is hand made by Jenny's friend Claudia, who's recipe of the Spirit Balls I shared with you. Check out how she does it... http://franlife.blogspot.ca/2006/12/recipe-green-chai-tea.html
Can you feel the love!
Look at the view outside their living room windows... right into Lake Ontario and the big beautiful sky!
Jenny's bark, adapted from the recipe I posted, except she used walnuts and dried cherries. I think I loved it even more than mine!
Here is Szos taking a picture of Jenny and I.
The best thing was that after our tea party, he emailed me the photos he took. We asked him to take a nice photo of us... the funniest thing is that he captured more than just a pretty smile (last picture), he captured the way we interact with each other, our laughter, our goofyness, our love... all the different parts of our friendship. Thanks Szos, you are such a cool dude!
Live, Laugh, Love... The End!
