meat pie

last week was a strange week. workwise- there seemed to be a million deadlines and i felt like i was being pulled from every angle. unnecessary personal drama made sleep challenging. the highlights included a rekindling of an old friendship over dinner and drinks and a night of dress shopping. nonetheless, come friday i was combatting undeniable tired headaches and weariness.

after work i picked up an assortment of meatpies from tuck shop including traditional ground beef, thai green chook curry, guinness steak and mushroom, and shrimp pie!! i don't know if it was the anticipation of finally getting to eat tuck shop's pie's after talking about it for months or my fatigue, but i devoured a whole pie on the way to the bus stop and cannot recall the last time food felt so satisfying to my soul.

luckily, the boy was on the same wavelength and we decided to lazy the night away. we rented braincandy and forgetting sarah marshall, stopped at duane reade for candy, and headed back home. after reheating the pies in the oven, i cut each in half and accompanied by a brooklyn pilnser, we had the perfect meat pie smorgasboard. with a belly full of food, it's unsurprising that i fell asleep 2/3rds of the way through braincandy!
