Please tell me that summer isn’t over!

If it must come to an end, I can’t think of a better way to enjoy the long weekend than celebrating with friends; sitting by the pool and sipping cocktails. Oh and of course, eating amazing foods.

The making of this video was interesting to say the least.

It was one of those evenings where almost everything that could go wrong went wrong (think broken flip cam, no batteries, missing files, etc.) but eventually a video was made – bonus points if you can spot the mistakes! Hehe.

Enjoy!

Thanks to Newman’s Own for the opportunity!
