Samba Churrasco!



I'm back from the rabbit hole! Man oh man, what a rabbit hole it was, and oh em gee am I glad to be back.  I'm still hopelessly behind on my Harry Potter progress as I'm only about 1/3 through book 4...le fret! I'm seriously worried that I won't get through all these books in time to see the movie while it's still in theaters. Not because I'm a slow reader, but because my summer is about to go from crazy to ape $hit, due to the fact that  both of my sisters and 3 out my 5 closest friends decided to be born in late summer, and I'll be a bit preoccupied with dinners, mojitos, and awesomeness. Eh..I'm sure I'll find a way to make it work. Speaking of birthdays, I have yet another friend, whom though is not one of the fab five, also happens to be a summer baby, and celebrates his day with a big Brazilian barbecue. Some of you may remember my first experience with churrasco last summer, which was life changing. So as you can imagine, I was all too happy to celebrate with my friend Max David yet again, as well as eat half my body weight in grilled meats.

Churrasco!

In Brazil, churrasco is the term for a barbeque which contains a variety of meats, which may be cooked on a purpose built "churrasqueira", a grill or barbeque, often with supports for spits or skewers.

In other words, meat-o-topia. It was a carnivore's dream, a vegetarian's nightmare, a flexatarian's excuse to eat pork, and the best damn Saturday I've had in a while. It's official, summer is here!

I apologize for the lack of good pictures. But I was wrist deep in grilled meats and several drinks in by the time I remembered my camera. My Bad

The Spread.






I have to mention the chorizo (not pictured). It was life. changing. No busllshit!

World Cup Fever


England vs. USA.
Considering the odds against us, good job on the draw USA!


It pays to have a friend in a Samba Band. It pays for that friend in the samba band to to be a summer baby, Happy Birthday, Max! 


Caipirhinas. Not a drink for the faint of heart drunk, lol.

the best things in life come in cups!

What makes BBQs so awesome is laughter, drum lessons, cute little girls who love dogs, samba dancing, and great conversations.  I had such a good time, I forgot to have someone take a picture of me. Damnit, I suck at this!





she was all about kona. It was too cute!


This, my friends, is how you kick off summer!
