Italian, Please
I haven't written a food post in a while. I guess it's because I got out of the habit of taking pictures of the dishes I'm eating.
A friend noticed though, and got me taking them again.
In short, this is a food post.
A few friends and I went out for dinner last Friday. We decided Italian food agreed with us.
Henri and me like the food.
Joni and Suy2 are enjoying the food too.
We had different pastas and other sumptuous choices.
Henri's bacon carbonara thingy
my amazing AMAZING grilled chops with herbed rice
There was a lot of rice, by the way. About half the plate. But that didn't mean I got tired of its herby goodness. The meat was quite soft as well.
In short, it was perfect.
And of course, what's Italian food without...
the prerequisite spaghetti bolognese with meatballs?
Everyone was happily full. But we just had to have dessert anyway. There's always room for dessert, after all.
mango panna cotta
We couldn't finish our Garlic Mushroom appetizer though. In the end, we broke the cardinal rule: Never play with your food.
Our veggies are smiling at you!
The pictures speak for themselves but dinner was fun! We don't often go out so we enjoyed it loads.

So I'm Daisy (or fedora_girl)
I'm (naturally) wearing the fedora.
I'm a Chemical Engineering student --- getting that degree sometimes involves putting my brain through a strainer --- who also enjoys living life and eating like every meal is my last meal.
I'm a child of God, and that gives my life meaning.
I adore my family and friends. We spend a lot of time together, so they occasionally come up in my posts.
I also take pictures, do computer work, and scribble. I use Adobe Photoshop for long periods of time, and design blogs. I submit most of my good photos and drawings in
my DeviantArt account, and my blog designs in
my Blogskins account.
I read a lot. My favorite books of all time are the Holy Bible,
Pride & Prejudice,
The Scarlet Pimpernel,
The Boy Who Could Fly,
The Nanny, &
Charlie & The Chocolate Factory.
I don't like watching TV because I feel it gives me wrong ideas about the real world. I'm partial to period dramas, musicals and other good movies though. A few that I like are
Pride & Prejudice (2005 version),
North & South (a BBC TV drama),
Facing The Giants,
Sixteen Candles, &
Singin' In The Rain.
I love music; I like a lot of genres. I'm getting into country music and some good rock at the moment. I also adore movie soundtracks and songs that are more than 60 years old.
And about this blog...
It's pretty much a personal thing. It's filled to the brim with my escapades, thoughts, stuff I make, and just plain observations. Random, really.
Hope you enjoy it!
