happy 2011


Happy New Year! This year our friends Maria Clara and Daniel proposed to have a pot luck dinner but they ended up making the vast majority of the food! Daniel is Polish, Venezuelan, Canadian, and Spanish and all those nationalities were reflected in some way in our dinner except for the Canadian. For dinner we had Polish mushroom soup and perogis. We drank Cava from Spain. We had tres leches for dessert. At 12 seconds to midnight we tried to eat 12 grapes - each one of which represented a wish. The only problem with the grapes is that it's impossible to eat a grape a second and also try to make wishes at the same time. But thankfully we had Polish vodka to wash it all down. I only go through three (grapes not vodka) but it was lots of fun. Then we finished the evening off at a party that was a lot of fun.

Sounds like fun. I remember eating grapes at midnight one New Year's with Paula from Ecuador. Sounds like a delicious and fun night.
