Christmas 2011

A year ago, a big part of what made my Christmas special was... well, the feast. There were ham, quezo de bola(did i spell it correctly?), lechon, cake, wine, and other food that lasted for days. It was perfect. Hours ago, we had Adobo and Ham. One look at the dining table and I said, "recession?" That got us laughing... why? We had a lot on our fridge and those were all that was served on our table. Funny. A year ago, I would have freaked out at the sight of an almost bare Christmas dining table. Now, it didn't matter. What mattered most was being in the presence of the people I love. It was more than what any kind of feast can ever do for me. I must really be a grown up now.

Being the insomniac that I am, I was the last one to surrender to my dreams. I was able to watch sex in the city 2 on cable 'coz there was nothing good at that time of the night(defensive?). I was amazed at how Carry Bradshaw was able to write at a record pace. Then, I realized that the reason for that was because she stuck to what she knew best... dating. If I were to follow that idea, I should just rename this blog to foodnetwork.com as food is my absolute obsession. Bad idea.

I should be sleeping now. I have a reunion and a date to attend tomorrow and a lot more shenanigans on the coming days. We should really consider starting Christmas parties and reunions in October.

Merry Christmas to all of you. Enjoy the rest of the holiday season. :)
