#nochips2011

 Well, Christmas has passed, and I start work again tomorrow. We had a nice dinner with our friend Theresa, and ended up purchasing a large turkey from Jean Talon market instead of a goose. The geese were so expensive, at least $100 each, and for three people that just wasn't practical.

Anyways, I figured that for this post I would show your our Christmas instead of blab on about it.

Christmas at our place





We made perogies with our friend Theresa

Adam in front of our Christmas eve feast - muscles cooked in wine, seafood dip, cheeses, and spanikopeta (sp?)

Adam on Christmas morning. We had cinnamon buns, cheese and fruit

We had champagne mimosas on Christmas morn.




Our turkey, Nestor, turned out really well. I stuffed it myself!

The three cooks.

In Quebec it is Christmas Eve tradition to have a yule log. Ours was from Première Moisson, a great bakery chain in town. Double chocolate.

NYE- I never noticed this before, but Adam and I really match here don't we? Wearing my E-label shirt dress I bought in Iceland, and my mukluks from SK.

Adam drinking water at the end of the night on New Year's. (Good idea)



Happy New Year! Have a great 2011!



Well, that's it for now. Adam and I gave up chips for 2011. NO CHIPS. For a WHOLE YEAR. Did any of my readers make a resolution or a goal for the new year?

Good luck kicking potato chips! There are a million better alternatives for a snack, so keep the fruit stocked and go to town on it!

Yeah, I think I'll stick to fruit and veg. If I'm really hurtin', some popcorn or pretzels should do the trick. I can never eat that many pretzels.
