Today, I'm taking a different route than normal. Today's post isn't about news, or even something amusing. Today's post is purely to embarrass our friend Skye.
A certain someone was supposed to join us for dinner on the evening of 02/25/2007. She delivered her regrets at precisely 1:29 PM; exactly 91 minutes before we were scheduled to meet in the city. I'm glad she didn't call a few minutes later, or we would have already been on the road to the University of Pennsylvania Museum.
Just so everyone is clear on exactly what she missed; I've taken some photos that I'd like to share...
We spent quite a while preparing this one. The table was set Asian-style. The menu included fresh sushi (hand made by Jessa), many types of dumplings, several kinds of steam buns, and home made green tea (Japanese-style) ice cream.
Here's a picture of the table all set, wine glasses and all:
Here we have a close-up of the table setting, including the bamboo steamer used for the food.
Also, we even had a selection of wines on hand. The bowls were set out for the ice cream.
Lastly, I thought I would include a picture of the sushi that was slumbering in the fridge. The poor sushi, it was only a few hours old when it heard that we were ditched. Poor little Philadelphia crab rolls.
We hope this blog entry serves to embarrass all those who have ditched us; and possibly all those who will ditch us in the future.
Also...
In completely unrelated news: our neighbors had better Asian food than ever before in their lives. Our splendid food was devoured by screaming children.
