antici... pation!

The deviled eggs (with homemade mayo) are ready. (Not as pretty as I'd like, but darned tasty. Pretty will come with repeated applications.)

The hummus is made. The carrots, and celery, and broccoli are chopped. The tzatziki is made. (Laura did that.) We've got simple syrup and mint for drinks, to say nothing of champagne, beer, and soda.

We've got two kinds of pate, three kinds of cheese, and three kinds of crackers.

The serving dishes are washed. The lights are set.

At about seven-fifteen I'll start plating the food. At about seven twenty-five I'll put on some music. Until then, I'm not sure that there's anything to do but wait.

Hey guys,

Sorry we missed it -- we were exhausted when we got off our flight & Jay had gotten sick on Sunday to boot. We really weren't up for ringing in a new year. I hope you guys had a blast! Can't wait to hear how it went!
