NEW YEAR'S EVE RECAP
I keep thinking that everybody tries to make these elaborate plans for New Year's Eve, but the reality never lives up to the hype.
This year, Karena adn I had a scaled down version by simply making dinner plans wtih Ko and Charice, the key word being "making." We ended up having quite a fancy dinner complete with nice china and silverware, linen tablecloth and napkins, champagne and wine, etc. And the best part was that we cooked the whole thing. Charice was in charge of the soup and the salad -- both of which were VERY gourmet. Karena made some garlic roasted salmon that was really good (although not quite as good as when she made it for me for Valentine's Day).
And the best part was that Ko and I attempted to make some flourless chocolate cake with semi-sweet chocolate glaze. We started at about 9:30 and didn't finish until midnight. So, we got to usher it in the new year with some chocolate cake ... which actually turned out to be not so bad.
Can you dig it?
