    Sunday I threw myself a Hello Kitty themed birthday party and sadly I was too busy to take any pics.  We did quite a bit of cooking--  I managed a pretty ambitious French menu.  I made cassoulet, choux fleur a la lyonnaise, vol au vents filled with champignon a la madame poe and a whole bunch of appetizers desserts.  I was pretty pleased with myself because everything turned out.  We had a nice crowd that showed up and I think everybody had a good time.  Here's some pics of me towards the end of the party:

    The last of the guests left sixish and Mr. Poe and I cleaned up with bedtime.  OK it was mostly Mr. Poe.  But I'd been on my feet cooking since 6:30 that morning so don't judge me.
