I was told by a friend recently that it's probably a good idea to write something here, just so people know I'm still alive. So I'm here!
Not much to tell of late, baked probably 10 dozen cookies over the Christmas holidays of varying types (gingerbread, shortbread, neopolitan, christmas icebox, candy cane) to give away. This year, hubby put together the care packages; they looked way better than what I usually do, but there were also less cookies per package. More leftovers for me!
Our friends invited us for Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve get together, which was really nice. Instead of the normal turkey dinner for Christmas Eve, our lovely hostess set out a variety of finger foods ranging from goat's cheese with a lovely cranberry sauce to hot swedish meatballs. I love having meals like that, it provides for so much more variety and I probably end up eating more than I would during a regular meal.
We're headed to the Pacific Institute for Culinary Arts on Monday for dinner. They've got a special running right now, and looking at their menu, I can't wait to try it out. There's also Dine Out Vancouver coming up. We'll probably try at least one or two restaurants again this year. Hope we won't be as disappointed as we were going to C a few years ago. The food was alright, but the decor was just too @#$%^ pretentious for our taste

Damn...you're making me hungry! The menu looks great...I'll take the fried squid appetizer (no surprise), the tilapia entree, and the pina colada mousse. Could you ship it to me, please? ;)
Sure, but it's going to get pretty ugly by the time it gets there. ;)
Two words for ya: dry ice! :)
Actually, this post reminds me that our Blogger friend Rosie has totally disappeared. Her blog is gone.
