Hi there, people of the future!
I trust that everyone had a safe and happy new year?
Ours was pretty much a success.
We had a lovely dinner at home, just the two of us, and then we went to a party where we managed to get a bit drunk, but were still able to walk home.
Lucifer was home alone for about 5 hours that night, but he was a total champ and not too scared of the fireworks.
He did eat part of Allans slippers, but they totally had it coming.

Look away, gentle vegans, this ain't tofu

Stirring the salad dressing

Improvised appetizers: my moms homemade bread and liver paté

Since we were dining alone we didn't have to pretend to enjoy red wine, so i had some apple/cranberry cider instead

Silver=classy

Green beans fried with olive oil and garlic

Cream potatoes, salad, roast and beans

Festive!

Dessert was pretty simple: burnt figs with vanilla ice cream

And instant coffee

After dinner we had a little photo session

I managed to find a dress in my closet that i've never worn before, how about that!

I guess i just never had an occasion?
(Hat: Homemade, Dress: Vintage from eBay, Stockings: Japan, Shoes: TopShop)The party we went to had a no-shoes policy, so i could have just worn winter boots instead (i totally had a Sex & the City moment when we got there, except of course for the fact that those shoes aren't Manolos and nobody even tried to steal them)

We found this in the fridge, i think it's been there since last year

We left home around 11.30.
Of course i'd gotten a really bad stomach cramp from all the food, so i really just felt like staying home, but i wanted to jump into the new year with Martin like we usually do, so we had to go.
Luckily the party was just down the street, which was very convenient.
We knew just two people at there, Martin and Christel, but we ended up having a good time anyway.

I don't care much for fireworks, but i do love sparklers

My boys

Allan pulled a "Martin"*

There were many blurry group photos like this one

Allan found a fancy hat too!

You probably can't tell, but i'm doing the crib walk in this picture... this is why i don't drink that often!

Everyone was happy and dancing until Christel decided to show me what happens to her friends when she puts on Pearl Jam...

The floor was empty in seconds, it was hilarious!

One final shot of Allan looking extra fancy!

The hangover yesterday wasn't too bad, but we camped out on the sofa all day anyway.
We watched Star Trek NG, played Left 4 Dead 2, took naps and ate junk food.
Today has been pretty mellow too.
The perfect way to start a new decade if you ask me!
What did you guys end up doing?
