This cartoon in today's newspaper made me smile. I asked Hubby Tony if he wanted to have an Old Year's Eve celebration tonight. He did.
Neither one of us was sure what an Old Year's Eve celebration would entail but we gave it our best shot. I started by emptying out the refrigerator and preparing a surprisingly good egg custard casserole dish that included cottage cheese, pumpkin puree, cornmeal, chopped greens, onion, garlic, and a splash of pepper brine. We also had toast (to 'toast' the old year). For dessert there was fresh blackberries and a package of truffles from a Christmas gift box.
After dinner we talked about 2025-what we liked and didn't like, what we were grateful for, and what we wouldn't bring into the new year. We also looked at photos from the past year and realized we had done more than we realized. Our conclusion was that in the end 2025 had been a good year.

Now that sound like a fine evening. We had scotch and catchup with a good neighbour this evening, and will probably just have an ordinary dinner and a good sleep tomorrow evening. On New Year's Day the family is meeting at a wonderful pancake house not far from us and a sweet time will be had by all.
ReplyDeleteWonderful! Same, it was a good year here too. I'm excited to take the things I learned, with me. Wishing you and Tony a Happy Healthy and Yummy New Year.
