These pictures are from my good-bye party, Aug 9, 2009.
It started off as a rainy cold morning, which made me nervous that NO ONE would come. But after an early mate session, kids started showing up to help set-up. There were tons of balloon-blower-upers, errand runners, table assemblers and setters, and random helpers! It was awesome!
Here are a few of the specs:
5 tents (emergancy borrow from the farmers market ladies-due to rain)
10 rented tables
50 rented chairs
50 rented plates, knives and forks (actually 100 knives and 30 fork...unfortunate)
13 2liter bottles of gaseosa
70 liters of beer
50 kilos of carne (MEAT!)
10 kilos of chorizo
14 kilos of mandioca
1 enormous cake (including: 2 kilos of flour, 2 kilos of butter, 2 kilos of dulce de leche, 22 eggs, 3.5 kilos of sugar and sprinkles!)
1 moonwalk/globoloco - for 1 hour (pictures to come)
1 HUGE sound system
Fany and me! (with my new library uniform)
This is just one of the MANY skewers of meat! (these are ribs)
my palengana full of meat (most of it was already on the grill at this point)
