"Every end is a new beginning."

This post is not as profound as the intentions of this quote was probably made out to be; however, today marks the end my VERY busy week, which also marks the beginning of another hectic week. All I can remember from the past week was the non-stop shopping, cooking, and preparing food and decorations for this weekend. Working in New York. Weddings and BBQ's are not as easy as they are cut out to be! Anyways, the rooftop lounge for the pre-wedding cocktail had a gorgeous 360 degree view, and the snacks were scrumptious (esp my truffles and my mom's 7 layer chip dip). The wedding was the cutest thing ever! I loved their theme, it was entertaining the entire time, and the dancing was great. If the bride and groom were not as creative as they were, the different selections of how they wanted to do things definitely would not have turned out well, but I give them props for making everything work out well. The bbq was great, especially at the end of the night. Drunk adults are hilarious! During the BBQ there were endless amounts of food, and it all ended with my baking skills! I will admit, a few of them became my own concoctions due to a few mishaps, but surprisingly, they all turned out well. And the one that I was the most worried about turned out to be one of the biggest crowd-pleasers. :)
I made crab and avocado crostini, Oreo truffles, truffles with pecans, bourbon and southern comfort, Oreo fudge cheesecake, apple cobbler pie (w/ vanilla ice cream), peach cobbler (w/ vanilla ice cream), and flan.
