So my Christmas started early this year and I got a few gifts before Christmas day from previous xmas parties... However I think the best present award has to go to "B" because he got me the best gifts and it was stuff that I wanted... lol minus the muff ( inside joke) but I love it anyways. So we went to Alice Fazooli's, we had the goat cheese and chicken pizza which I thought it was delish and the Butternut Ravioli which sounded better on paper than it did in the mouth ( really it didnt amaze me and it could have been so much better). So after that we just hung out and before it was time to go home we did a little gift exchanging. *Note* I was told by "B" in our last meeting that I was not to "buy" him a gift, so being the obdient girl I am, I made his gift instead... I baked him 2 types of cookies Sugar Cookies which I used holiday shapes, (Star, Tree and Lightbulbs), Icing and color sugar... and Soft molasses cookies which taste spicy cus of the ginger and cinnamon in it. Yummy! :P Mmmm ... So asides the fur boot covers that were made to resemble a muff, I also got Nightmare before Christmas Dvd (collectors edition) and Twlight (hardcover collectors edition, which I couldnt find anywhere.) Thanks B! I love my gifts!!!
Christmas Eve (Dec 24)
Christmas Eve was spent with my family and some Family friends... We went to thier place and of course did the Turkey and all its usual friends stuffing, mashed potatoes, salad ...etc. Lots of good wine, and delicious desserts topped of with some Baileys Yumm :P Which contributed to my participation in playing Rockband.... Some highlights of the night include meeting 6 wk old baby Miguel ( sooo adorable and strong too), small gifts (assorted teas from Second cup, lotion set, & Tim's gift card), Rocking out & being so drunk at dinner that my mouth felt numb as I was eating and yet I was able to compose myself and not attract attention to myself *pat myself on the back* :)


Christmas Day ( Dec 25)
So my family & I went to my aunts house for Christmas Dinner and boy did I ever stuff myself. After the first round I was feeling rather plump. I thought that if I pause on the eating and let my stomach relax that I could attempt a second round and was I ever wrong I went for round 2 and I struggled but Im glad I wore my "fatman pants" aka Yoga pants. The highlights included watching Alexia open her Christmas gifts ( my cousins daughter), the many toasts, and paparazzi picture time. What a beautiful Holiday for families and friends to get together.
