All Clear or So
We had sixty or seventy people come through the NYE party, and the new year did not recoil in fright. Everybody was out by 2, and almost everything is cleaned up (tho not put away). We're about to drive north to an Open House that's been a traditional pass-along and talk-a-lot item for us for years.
Someone picked choice items from the giveaway pile, but then stashed them in a bag and forgot the bag; if that was you, your new possessions are calling to you to come and pick them up. This year, less wine and more champagne was drunk than last year. Diet sodas and flavored waters were big hits; the filtered water tank went through two cycles; and the sugared sodas were mostly drunk (though we bought too much Coke, all too easy to do at Costco). As is common at NYE, we ended up with more beer than we started with.
The situation with food, and snacks; ah, what can I say? You are all the most remarkable of friends, and have excellent taste as well as excellent friends. Thank you for bringing all the wonderful things you brought!
I took some pictures, but haven't had the boldness and rashness to look at them yet. Any of you facing outstanding warrants (in the old Cacaphony phrase) should drop me a note if you don't want an image of you online. As you will note in the icon above, I am not afraid to show myself as I am; so let that be a lesson to all of us.
