Farshid + Natasha = Fartasha

Felly and I woke up early Saturday morning to go to Farshid and Natasha's Engagement party in Pittsburgh.

We arrived at the airport early. Downed a few dranks.



And were on our way.



I got this book for AC, but since I haven't seen him in 22 weeks I decided to read it myself.



The Four Hour Workweek.

It's a really great book. If you hate your job though, beware, it will convince you to quit.

I love it because it reaffirms most of the decisions I've made in my life these past few years.

.....

Anyway.

We arrived in Pittsburgh and got the very last rental car.





From there it was about an hour drive to our hotel.





Starving. We stopped at Isaac's Ale House.





Then got to our hotel and changed for the party.




We rode over to Natasha's house with Farshid. And when we arrived, and he jumped out of the car, flashbulbs went crazy. The paparazzi were out in full force. He loved it.




There was a ton of amazing food prepared.




And lots of non-alcs.



Curry buffet plus no drinking makes Kathryn feel SEXY.



After some appetizers, Natasha made her grand entrance.




And took her spot on the throne next to Poopshid.



Parents gave speeches.



We all posed for photo ops.




And we had a dinner buffet.



After dinner, Natasha's sister, who is a dead-ringer for Vanessa Hudgens, performed a couple songs, including an acoustic piano version of Chris Brown's Forever. It was beauuuutiful.





More speeches...



Some funny team games...




And yay, they are officially engaged.




Afterwards we retreated to our hotel.



And were joined by all the young people.




Natasha showed off her ring. Isn't it pretty?



I kid. I kid.

It really is quite pretty.



Congrats Fartasha!

Dr. Farshid, MD



Farshid knows how to throw a party.

He was renting out venues and hosting open-bars long before anyone else was.

And it is now pretty clear where got his epic party-hosting skillz from.

Following the Hermosa Beach Concert, I rushed down to Costa Mesa for Farshid's Med School graduation party hosted by his lovely parents.



It all started with a curry eatfest.




People were all dressed in beautiful Sasian clothing.



His little sister Farina put together a slideshow.




And his dad entertained with speeches.




And then there was dessert...



...after dessert...



...after dessert...




...and cupcakes.



Yum. Congratulations Dr. Kazi!
