We certainly put a lot of emphasis on the exact stroke of midnight December 31st. Nothing magical happens as we leave one year behind and embrace the next, but we do feel a sense of renewal and a chance to start fresh. No matter what happened in 2008, 2009 has the potential to be the best year yet. It is the feeling of hope and a clean slate that gives us the excuse to put on silly hats and party like teenagers!
This year, like a lot of people I know, we decided to stay in and have somewhat of a minimalist celebration. The one extravagance that was non-negotiable, however, was the food. We set out a spread of various hors d’oeuvres and a selection of champagne. We all gathered around the flat screen and played wii bowling until four in the morning only taking a five minute break at midnight to watch the ball drop in New York and the fireworks at the Space Needle. It felt good to be warm and well fed with those we cared about most while we said our official goodbye to the challenging year that was 2008. It was a physical reminder of what is important in life.
We, at Three Chicks Catering, send you our sincere wishes for a prosperous and happy new year…
CHEERS!
