If you got a box of pears for Christmas, here's a really good idea for them: pear martini. Marinate sliced pears in vodka. Puree pears, mix with vodka, shake in a cocktail shaker with ice, pour into glasses garnished with pear slices. It was delicious. I had three sips that did me in at the party last night.
Later in the evening, as predicted, I fell asleep on the couch next to a six year old. It was 1:00 am. The party this year was mellow and we ended up watching a lot of Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve. How did Jenny McCarthy keep her eyeshadow so perfect and what work has she had done on her face?
Our hosts made us a big brunch and we got back home mid-afternoon. The reality of the end of leisure is hitting me. This is my last day of lazy vacation.
Time to go pick up Chinese food for dinner. I forgot to defrost the petite pork roast I have, so I'll cook that tomorrow and wish for good luck in 2013.
