Okay, right after you call 911, call the Media.
I noticed this handy guide at Walmart and thought we all might do well to memorize the color codes. Jeez!
Back at the homestead we don't need any signs posted to tell us how to proceed. We had our friends History and Cowgirl up for a New Year's Eve dinner and over-night. I think we've been doing this for five or six years.
This year I got smart and opened the champagne at the beginning of dinner. After a glass of wine with dinner, we're usually not up for opening the champagne, in spite of the festive occasion.
We had a nice Veuve Clicquot that had been loitering around the back of our fridge for a while.
I enjoyed putting together a veggie feast to end the year with: portobello mushroom caps stuffed with goat cheese, pine nuts and basil served on a bed of homemade tomato/olive sauce, caprese salad, TJ's garlic eggplant spread on filo dough, and bread dipped in the fabulous olive oil that Tomasina gave me for Christmas. Finished up with another apple pie, topped with ice cream.
No pictures. We were kind of into eating it all.
Didn't quite make it to Zero Hour, but that's okay. Good company and good conversation made for a good ushering out of 2007.
