OK, so after a day at work, a stop at the grocery store, after a few hours of working on the Stang, this is what he loves to do!
He was working on a new recipe of Beef Bourguignon. You know, that recipe that calls for almost a bottle of red wine. Think Julia Child. All the recipe books come out and he compares and contrasts and comes up with his own recipe. My favorite activity is sitting at the penninsula with my glass of wine and discussing food and kids and the days events while watching the creation develop! The smells, ooh so good!
My first gift of the New Year was that we were overstaffed at work and so they offered me the night off! So, I have some time to finally post Christmas Day at our house.
Dinner was spread out over 4 tables, the dining room and then the coffee table in the living room, and we set up 2 additional tables there, too. More wine at table 3!
We had our annual gift exchange, complete with three allowed "rip offs" for each gift! We swapped mostly gift cards from Target and Starbucks! Some gifts were disguised. One had a banana to weigh it down, another had rocks in the box!
