A Happy and Prosperous 2009

Be safe, happy and healthy

Matt

Thanks Matt!! Happy New Year to you too!

God, it's really weird to think we are in two different years right now. It's a bit creepy! It's only 11 am here, so we still have 13 hours before we cross over to 2009.

Happy New Year everyone!! :D

Front-Ranger:
Thanks for kicking off our New Year, Australians!! 2009 can't come fast enuff for me!!

Meryl:
Happy New Year everyone!  :-*

I'm about to make my mom's special Ham and Navy Beans, two lucky foods according to Lee.  Will probably go to see "Slumdog Millionaire" with friends, then come home and chow down.  It's supposed to be freezing in NY tonight.  I won't be among those in the Times Square crowd!  :P

I did my drinking tonight...a Maker's Make Manhattan while soaking my black-eyed peas! Yes, Shasta, we are planning on having ham, not hog jowls, and escarole, not cabbage. Greens are lucky, because they represent green paper money. Ham is lucky because the pig moves forward while rooting, meaning progress. No lobster for the New Year's, because they move backwards! Do you hear me, friend Paul??!!

Apparantly I am cooking hogs maws and black eyed peas. yum yum, can't wait, but it is almost mandatory where we are. !!!  I am then going to immerse myself in a vat of alcohol and watch the Time square shennanigans.

I heard you, Friend Lee!  No lobster for us tonight.

We're having a big-ass snow storm here on Cape Cod!  45mph winds and all! 

I'll be hunkering down with a good fire, a Maker's manhattan to start the evening (cheers, Lee!).  Our great friend Peter visiting us from Santa Cruz.  Beautiful Wellfleet oysters on the half-shell (they don't move much), wild King salmon (must be good luck, they swim forwards and vigorously), homemade spanakopita (with fresh paper money spinach), and then Peter's special pumpkin streusel.  A bottle of Perrier-Jouet Grand Brut on ice. 

Happy New Year to all!
