black tie dinner

last night, i went to a black tie dinner with some friends. i knew it'd be expensive, but i decided i'd earned myself a treat, and as i already had the dress, i just had to pay for the food. exhorbitantly priced, but what the hell. it was good. especially the cinnamon pear... i could've eaten ten of those, easy. when we got to our sixth and final course (dessert), i actually had no space left for it, despite all the portions being small...

and it was nice to really dress up for once. guys in dinner jackets, girls in nice gowns. there aren't really many occasions to go all out, so i'm glad my friend organised this. for once i was made up, wore nail polish,... the works. and i felt like a queen. which is nice, once in a while ;)
