Christmas/New Year update (yes it is late)
I've been meaning to do this for at least a week, but I've just gotten distracted. My Christmas/Christmas eve was good, but a little stressful. My mom broke her wrist three days before christmas, and I was in charge of bringing her to the grocery store, doing her wrapping, and making our seven course christmas eve and christmas day dinners. Christmas eve I cooked: steamed mussels, scallops in bacon, crab cakes (from scratch), stuffed shrimp, seafood bisque, lobster raviolli, and a cheesecake and chocolate cake for dessert, plus assorted cookies. Christmas day was a little simpler, with a beef tenderloin, green beans, potatos au gratin, and mushroom soup. But seriously, I am a fantastic chef after that.
Some present highlights are a jewelry armoire (spelling?) that is already situated in my apartment, and various dvds and cds I asked for, as well as my beautiful beautiful anne klien boots.
New years was better than last year- this year I took a tour of virginia. seriously. I drove down the 30th and stayed with greg where his mom made me a fantastic dinner, then the next night (new years eve) was at bonettes where I got fantastically drunk. I was so hung over the next day I hung out at his house, where his mom told me about her favorite word (which is penis, because it makes you smile) and showed me pictures of peni(ses?) dressed up in costume. Fantastic. I finally made it back to my apartment for the next, then continued onto lenny's house the next day where his mom made anotehr delicious meal, and got me drunk. The end.
Now I'm just doing errands- getting my camera fixed, returning some gifts, sending packages. Fun times!
