Our Last Mexican Fiesta as Law Students


Amy, Ryan and Nathalie: Forever a Trio

As usual, some friends and I headed to have our traditional post-finals Mexican meal. First we had drinks at Tequila Rose and then we went over to my favorite spot, South of the Border, for dinner. The photo says it all... Tacos Carne Asada with extra hot sauce. I'm sure going to miss these guys... and I don't just mean the tacos.

Christopher would be disappointed...

Columbus, Ohio - I am here taking a one week course in adoption law at Capital University. So far the course work is quite interesting and I have encountered some nice folks from law schools all over the country.
The city (or shall I say town) of Columbus, on the other hand, has not impressed me so far! When I arrived on Sunday the downtown area was deserted and my roommate Jill and I had to walk several blocks just to find an open restaurant! We did end up finding a place called Ted's Montana Grill that had a respectable bison burger but geez - where is everybody?! The other neat place we visited is called North Market - a Reading Terminal market-like place with all kinds of food stalls. We had some delicious sushi there and also hit up Ben & Jerry's last night (sadly I had to get sorbet because of my lactose problem). Hopefully tonight I will get to German Village - supposedly a neat area so look for news of that soon!

Wining and Dining

Later on July 27 we headed over to one of the major law firms for a Public Interest Reception that was graciously hosted for all of the public interest interns in Philly. Wine, beer and some huge boiled shrimp made for a fun afternoon! I saw Sara and Marilyn from W&M and caught up on all the Marshall Wythe high gossip.

Working Lunch...

The Interns

The Attorneys

On July 27, which was my next to last day of work and also Tiffany's birthday, I had several culinary adventures. First, my office took all of the interns out to lunch at Pietro's, an Italian place in Rittenhouse that specializes in brick oven pizzas. Tiffany and I shared a scrumptious Mediterranean salad with shrimp and a dish of chicken and shrimp in a creamy tomato sauce over linguine.


We also got Tiffany a birthday tiramisu and had a great time shmoozing with the office attorneys over the lunch hour. The director of our agency thoughtfully gave each of us a different book about child advocacy. Fun times!
