Girls, Grub, Gossip, & Booze

brownies

One of my friends E is getting married next weekend so to send her off the girls put together a little fem gathering. For this quaint event I made sun-dried tomato polenta w/marinara and thyme breadcrumbs. This time I used a metal mold to cut out pretty little oval shapes rather than cutting em up into squares. Much more refined for my ladies, isn't it? And something a little bit sweet... brownie cupcakes with nutella icing. I completely fucked up the icing by trying to take shortcuts instead of following a recipe. Then I remembered my jar of nutella! I sprinkled some marigold color sugar crystals on top for festivity. Who woulda ever thunk my non-baking ass would ever get a jar of sugar crystals?

polenta

So the girls filled up on cute polenta bites, brownies, wine and tequila while we jibber jabbered throughout the night. And hopefully sent off E with happy thoughts and happy tummy!

the funny thing about gnutella is that it's similar to peanut butter. you can keep it for months, maybe even years, and it'll still taste good. that stuff is solid. those cupcakes w/ gnutella sound like asskickers. yum. i usually put gnutella in my crepes with vanilla bean ice cream.
