Hosting my first ever dinner party



Lunch and trip to riccarton mall


J suggested an italian restaurant for lunch! i'm ups for anything new that a local kiwi would suggest so off we went! (:



i got a chicken pizza with BBQ sauce (: really awesome! it's really tangy and full of chicken pieces! so good! (: 

he opted for gnocchi carbonara (: was really good too, though i was telling him about the awesome carbonara at antoinette restaurant in singapore and told him i'd take him if he ever comes .





Dinner Party



it was really exciting preparing for the dinner (: felt very excited and nervous too!

I also tided up the common area and cleaned up the place cos i wanted to make things nice for my guests hahaha

shifted the time earlier to 5.30pm



 here's my crepe batter, its not that smooth cos i didn't have a blender, i hand whisked it so there's a little unmelted butter oh wells



 crepe frying in the pan (:



 i eventually managed to toss a perfect crepe (:








group pics!


i'm so glad that even though it was a last minute thing, 6 out of the 7 people i invited turned up (:

i had prepared quite a lot of food and i thought we were not going to finish cos everyone was getting full haha, but we hanged out and continued munching and snacking and all the food was finished at the end of the night (:

Thanks to everyone who came and made me feel appreciated even though my crepes were more like pancakes hahaha


i really enjoyed hosting this dinner (:  it was fun just to hang out with friends. i will miss this incredibly in just a month's time when im not here anymore.
