Happy New Year!

Last night I watched Mama Mia in bed and was asleep before midnight. Joseph worked.

Today we celebrated the beginning of an excellent year! We declared another tradition, a feast of king crab legs on New Years Day. We had them last year on the first for a fantasy football championship party. We never discussed before hand that we wanted to eat crab legs today, be we saw them at Costco on Tuesday it was a done deal. A tradition it is. :)

For lunch we had a staple cheese platter with nuts and fruit, today grapes and blackberries. Joseph had a Chimay and I drank some sparkling Pinot Noir. Notice the new board and cheese knife? It's a gift from Chris & Mandy, which makes me grin because I served them a massive cheese display when they were here in July and they ate the whole thing and loved it so much!!



Now we're watching USC kick Penn State's ass in the Rose Bowl. Joseph says: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

After the game, USC won 38-24!, it was time for dinner. We had caesar salad with croutons made from leftover cloverleaf rolls and this delicious grilled Ribeye. We drank another bottle from Mama Lisa, a Russian River Valley Pinot Noir from Rodney Strong Vineyards.
