Cine-dips #1 was a great success. Matt made a caramelized onion and garlic dip (recipe will be posted at the end of this blog entry) it was delicious.
here's Matt making the dip:
and of course we had to try it out before feeding it to people:
Yvonne and Jason brought some amazing middle eastern eggplant dip called Imam Bayeldi and authentic pita bread for dipping.
Stephanie and Steven brought all the makings for a Dirty Ho. Here's how that conversation went:
Stephanie: "We brought stuff to make Dirty Ho's"
Jason: "What goes into a Dirty Ho?"
Manna: "Your Mom."
baddum bum ching!
I realized this morning that I only got one fairly sucky picture of my fellow cine-dippers and not everyone is even in the picture, boo!
Here's a picture of the dips:
Somehow I ended up with almost no pictures of the goings on of the evening and like 100 pictures of Matt doing drunk yoga after everyone went home. Here's how it began:
and then:
"you know what would be hilarious? A drunk yoga exercise video!"
"Warrior one!"
"Warrior Two!"
"Add the bind!"
"Corpse pose."
Time for bed.
The morning after . . .
