Happy New Year!


Yes, it's 2012. For New Year's eve, Tom and I put on our fancy clothes and went to a fancy-schmancy dinner party at our friends' L and D's house up the hill. The theme of the party was the 12 signs of the Zodiac, and so it was a 12-course dinner, where each course was based on one of the zodiac signs (click the photo to zoom in). And of course it wouldn't be a NYE party without drinks aplenty. I wore a pewter-blue, satin shirt-dress, which was so comfortable I felt like I was wearing jammies (hello, expandable waist!) – perfect for gluttonous eating and drinking. We wrote mad-lib style fortunes. Tom's were hilarious, something like running away from your spouse because divorces are expensive. Is he trying to tell me something?

It's gonna be a good year. I don't make resolutions, but I do have a constant (though not necessarily active) goal of improving myself. You know, be more patient (especially to Yoshi), be happy (not negative), not worry so much (this is really hard), declutter my house, figure out what I want to do with my life. Stuff like that. Oh, and blog more.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year Denise! Love the simple and warm resolutions. Glad you had fun up the hill at "our place" :)
That dinner looks fab. Next time let me know where it is so I can crash it! :)
