My bestie Jonny came to visit, so I sort of put my life on hold for a few days and had fun.
It was a lovely weekend. On Saturday night, we met up with Jonny's friend, Greg, who was visiting from NYC. We went to an art show, dined at a fancy restaurant, and then headed over to my favorite lounge to listen to live jazz music and sip cocktails.
On Monday, Jonny and I had a lazy day.
We made pumpkin pie and pumpkin challah.
Well, Jonny baked everything while I sat by and chain-drank grapefruit raspberry cocktails, let's be real.
If you're fascinated by pumpkin challah, here is a recipe.
I hope everyone is having a cozy week!

Bonjour Jennifer. Well, I have to ask: Is there anything Johnny can't do??? You are one lucky girl to have found such a friend. Glad you had a fun weekend. Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)
Pumpkin pie sounds great now, with a dash of whip cream on top and a coffee. I can have that for my lunch, to think of it..
I still think it's weird how we suddenly fell into fall already (all these pumpkin and butternut squash are starting to grow like crazy in my garden) - while I don't think I've truly enjoyed the summer sun!
You shouldn't feel sorry about being absence, especially when you had a great quality time with your best friend. That's the best kind!
Well hey there shiny locks! Bloody Nora, is there anything this guy can't do? Mr. Multi-tasking talent!
Hope you enjoyed pie, send me a slice sugar!

what kind of booze goes in a grapefruit raspberry cocktail? i kind of need to know this.
I loved this:

great pics and nice to know that u r having such a fun time with friends. reminds me of my friends who are not near me anymore :(
Sounds like a perfect few days. The pumpkin pie looks delicious!! Can I befriend Jonny as well?
Just repeating what "French Girl" asked. Is there anything Johnny can't do? Does he have an elder brother who might be looking for a girlfriend? Just kidding! looks like a great day spent with your best pal.
Take care.
Gah! Fall baking is my favorite - now I'm hungry! :)
It's been forever since the last time I baked something!!!!
