Today, I went to a potluck BBQ with my parents’ family friends. My mom was responsible for bringing the meat so last night we marinated a bunch of drumsticks, wings, etc. in some soy sauce, sesame oil, scallions, onions, garlic and other random chinese spices. We also made a dry rub with cumin, cinnamon, pepper, garlic powder, salt, and montreal steak seasoning for another batch. SO TASTY. This was my first plate:
I didn’t take anymore pictures, but I had another entire chicken wing, a drumstick, half an italian sausage, handful of rye bagel chips, and something like half a pound of costco strawberries. I love the fruits of summer.
And something sweet and cold…
It was nice seeing my parents’ friends again. Two families have children who are my age (seniors in college) and the three of us went to SAT class together back in the day. Unfortunately, neither of them could make it.
And here’s a pic of “my” — in quotes because it’s technically not mine — new car. It’s my mom’s car, but I’m driving it to work everyday so I consider it mine for now. Her name is Gemma. Vroom vroom.
After I came home today I did a practice verbal section on the GRE. Is it just me or is the verbal GRE so much harder than the verbal SAT?!
Off to read some blogs, watch 24 in bed, and sleeeeep.
BBQs are one of the best parts of summer, aren’t they!?! š
Ooooh, did you marinate the cucumbers in something? Damn, not I just want cucumbers XD
Someone else brought the cukes, but they seemed like they were in some vinegar concoction. š GO EAT A CUCUMBER (thats what she said………*cough*)!!
ahhh the GRE.
it kicked my booty back in the stone age when I took it š
the SAT? not so much!
sounds like fun- cute wheels š your mom’s cooking has always sounded great to me! hehe…I could eat my own weight in strawberries.
Have a great Sunday (GET SOME SLEEP!)
