We've started a fun little tradition with our friends Nelson and Christina in which we gather on Monday nights to drink martinis and chow down on whatever I decide to make. Nelson aptly named this "Martini Monday", so that's what we all call it.
Just to catch you up on the awesome that happens on these weeknight extravaganzas, here are some photos.

I really enjoy the arrangement of us bringing the food and them providing the booze, and I try to make something different every week. I'll have to post the instructions for White People Sukiyaki and I've been wanting to explain my taco theorem for quite some time, so keep any eye out for that nonsense!
But mostly just be jealous, because seriously. Martini Monday is the best way to do Monday.
