Christmas with the girls

Ok, last night was a slip. But it was Christmas party with the girls! Surely that's excuse enough! How can I not eat the wonderful shepherd's pie made by our hostess Niq, the perfect spicy bacon pasta from the kitchen of Teddi and the rich rich to die for chocolate teddykins (molten chocolate) also by our resident Giada de Laurentiis??

Toasted wine and champagne in celebration of... life? Love? Friendship. Family. Thankfulness for all the blessings (and brokenness) this year.

It was our first "grown-up" dinner, and it was great. It's great to realize we've grown up but also grown together. I can see it as becoming a tradition over the years, provided nobody moves abroad. But as if fate is giving a foreshadowing, our theme was winter, so everybody was dressed like Christmas in New York.

Here's to learning, enduring and hoping. Here's to being mid-twenties and being young and fresh. Here's to not being so smart sometimes, but definitely being strong all the time. Here's to the unknown future that awaits! =)
