New Year's party at work...I'm not even considering taking a lunch. Party my office, all day...all the Sparkling Cider you would like and hats, and horns. I'll be the minion in the corner typing away.

I'm leaving leftovers for the family and I'm off to work where I'll eat what they feed me. I think I'll be a bit proactive though and take a little something JIC the food is something weird or nasty.
Happy New Years Eve everyone!

Just got home from a trip to visit family so cupboards are pretty bare. Got the crud while away too so the bathrooms are being used on a fairly regular basis. Will have to keep the food simple tonight. Maybe just sandwiches.

It will be just my husband and I this evening. We are having homemade pasta (unsure what kind yet!) and grilled ciabatta bread sprinkled with Fleur de Sel and drizzled with a young green olive oil. For dessert we are having Pear Vanilla Bean Crisp. Simple but tasty!

We hit Costco yesterday, and popped for two lobster tails, and a lb of big shrimp, so NYE will be "surf and surf", not "surf and turf", complete with candlelight. I'll steam some Jasmine rice with parsley, and make a salad. We have these individual butter warmers that are really wonderful for a meal like this. It's great to have hot drawn butter throughout the meal.

Appys and alcohol.
We've done nothing but eat, eat, eat since Thanksgiving and are ready to slow down. I pulled out a Polish sausage from the freezer, which will make its way to the grill. (It's 65 degrees here today.) Don't know what else. The fridge is full of various leftover sides and they need to be eaten before they become UFOs (unidentified food objects).
We're saving our lobster tails for Sunday. We'll enjoy them more then.

I believe James and I will be joining you! YUM!
We are supposed to go to a party tonight, but we're not sure if we are going to make it. We may make it an all junk night, since we are definitely planning to make junk less a part of our meals and snacking. Go out with a bang and start fresh tomorrow.
I still have plenty of cauliflower and broccoli, as well as fresh asparagus, so if we do go the junk route, we will balance it out a little with them.BarbaraBarbara L

Tonight will be leftovers with some snacks. I have leftover ham, potato salad, broccoli salad, and coleslaw. Snacks will be simple: cheese, salami, and crackers, onion dip and chips, or I might make some nachos. I hope that you all have a Happy New Year's.

We will be having Tbones on the grill, baked sweet potatos, salad, and some of Kathleen's strawberry wine to toast the New Year. Can't wait.

Oooh, hurry Fred! After you get here with the prime rib, we can gather up our stuff, then LindaZ is just a hop-skip-and-jump from here. We're eating good tonight!

Steaks and sweet potatoes sound just plain yummy. I hope my wine will measure up!
Frank has been making stock for chili since yesterday. I was so hoping that is what we would have chili tonight. Since I'm told that the chili needs to sit to blend flavors, I'll make spaghetti in vodka sauce - I have everything in the pantry for it! A grape and orange salad to go with it. As for the vodka, why stop with dinner?

I'm in!
Just gotta feed the dogs and grab my twice baked potatoes I just stuffed!
Irish beef stew. Lots of R&R with snacks and some champagne to open later.
