Girls Weekend!

Sometimes you just need to spend an evening eating cookies, watching dance movies, and learning how to do smokey eyes.





After our night of debauchery, we headed to Baltimore.  Our first stop was the Canton neighborhood, where Sarah led us on a guided tour of Baltimore's painted screens (the tradition of painting window screens began with William Oktavec in 1913 and I am seriously considering bringing it to NAUCK). 




 

From there, we headed over to Miss Shirley's for a brunch that was indescribably delicious and left me unable to eat for a good 24 hours.  Then we stopped into Edgar Allen Poe's Baltimore-era home and visited his grave.  




Our last stop was a quick drive-by of Leakin aka Murder Park where we stepped out of the car and right back in, as we got a little nervous about either finding a body or becoming bodies buried in shallow graves (Serial, it's so hot right now).  


We ended the evening at our ward Thanksgiving potluck.  This was my contribution - so proud of myself for extracting this from the can with surgical precision.
