"If we examine every stage of our lives, we find that from our first breath to our last we are under the constraint of circumstances. And yet we still possess the greatest of all freedoms, the power of developing our innermost selves in harmony with the moral order of the Universe, and so winning peace at heart whatever obstacles we meet." ~Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Slumber Party
A few months back, two of my friends Susan and Julie suggested that I host a 'Slumber Party' at my new pad.
So Saturday night I hosted 4 of my favourite girls in all the world. Mariana, Eva, Julie and Susan.
The ladies showed up with sleeping bags in tow, and we all settled in for a fun filled evening.
We started the night with candles lit and music playing. Smoked Salmon hors d'oeuvres, Mariana's amazing guacamole, with fresh cut salsa and tortilla chips, olives, it was all sooo great.
With the drinks flowing, we made short work of the nibblies. We then moved into chocolate fondue!!! I can't even tell you!!! So good. During the day I had made some home made chocolate chip cookies. We used those to make home made ice cream sandwiches, which we rolled in Hershey's chocolate chips. Needless to say we were all on a sugar high~
It is rare that you get to enjoy an evening with friends that doesn't have to end, it added to the level of comfort that we were all staying put for the night.
We all got our sleeping bags prepared and finally called it a night. Note to self: sleeping bags are designed to keep a person warm in very cold temperatures. Can you imagine what they were like in a heated condo??? Can you say WARM?!?! As much as we were all troopers, we lasted until around 3:30am on the floor and slowly migrated to available beds. My back never appreciated my mattress so much!!!
Breakfast the next morning was a collaborative effort. Eva makes a wicked scrambled egg!!!
Ladies....I love you each so much, I can't thank you enough for a great evening!!!!!
