Graduation Dinner

So…I graduated last month! After seven years in school, three programs switches and a move from NL to NS to go to the Mount, I finally have that parchment hanging on my wall. Wa-hoo!

Anyway, that being said, my graduation was a big deal to the parentals, and they came to Hali to join in the festivities. Clearly, the most important aspect of that day- after convocation- was where we would go for dinner. Well, momma knows best and she said “What about that Warehouse place you’re always talking about?” So that was it, we decided on Brooklyn so that I could intro my fam, to my adopted fam.

There was a nice crew for dins, 8 of us smack in the middle of the resto. A good friend of mine served our table, and did so flawlessly, putting up with the photos and all. Normally I go into a spew about BK, but instead, I thought I’d do a montage of the meals so that you can see for yourself what the food is like…You’ll just have to take my word about the amazing taste.

* I’d like to thank all in attendance for patiently waiting while I fixed the lighting and took 37374 photos of their meals before digging in! I apologize for the inconsistent shots- my camera died and I had to resort to taking photos on my BBerry!
