Carly’s birthday & party happened here on October 27th. These pictures bespeak a fraction of the unfolding mirth. Add pictures; comment!

No party’s complete without it.
Traditional La Casa hand slap game.
A few weekends ago, the members of la casa let me host a belated birthday party at the house. the party featured homemade ice cream and an outdoor movie, projected on the side of the barn.
john e, kannan, and mac brought an old-fashioned hand-crank ice maker. everyone got to contribute a little bit to making the ice cream:
we made earl grey ice cream, honey ice cream, chocolate-rum-raspberry ice cream, and avocado ice cream. nora’s boys brought sprinkles and ate a few bowls of mostly sprinkles with some avocado ice cream on top:
you can find the recipe for the earl grey ice cream here. *NOTE: i always cut the recipe in thirds. using 24 egg yolks for one recipe is just insanity.
We also stapled butcher paper to the barn and projected the egyptian movie ‘the band’s visit’, a very slow-paced comedy that i would highly recommend.
