    We're having a big party! We've invited about 50 people (keep in mind we live in a 900 sq ft apartment) but probably no more than 20-30 will show up. I'm making appies and we're serving bubbles at midnight. I love parties. Sort of going all-out this year. I was sort of dissatisfied with our New Year's Eve events in the previous years, so I thought there was no better way than organize my own. It's really giving a purpose to my coming two days!!

    I have to teach a morning indoor-cycling class on New Years Day (I wonder how the room is going to smell after that...maybe a combination of leftover alcohol fumes?) So anyway, it'll be a early evening.

    Still we'll do our usual "eating our way into the New Year" with King crab, some homemade bread, roasted garlic (that should spice up my class the next day) and some good wine.

    Happy New Year everyone! Keep it safe!

    Nothing special for us...just staying home and watching a Netflix movie (The Expendables). Probably won't even stay up to ring in the New Year. On most nights, I can barely keep my eyes open past 9 o'clock. I plan on either going to the gym or heading outside for a 4 mile jog on NYD...so I'll be up early either way.

    Probably just home gourmet meal for ourselves. I haven't got a tv. He'll make herbed spaetzel (a sort of German pasta), etc.

    We're saving ourselves for out of town trip next week when rates are cheaper. In Banff, AB area for snowshoeing.

    Hoping for new species of birds to add to my Life List.
    Now THIS sounds like fun, hopefully the weather will cooperate with you. All I am planning on doing NY morning, assuming that I get up early enough, is to go to a free Pilates Reformer class at my club. While there is an additional charge for those classes they do make them free on holidays. I think it is, basically, a teaser to encourage people to purchase classes.

    This sounds like a nice way to spend a winter evening! My NY eve will be pretty low key. There is something at church tomorrow evening, then will come home and light a fire - and assuming I stay up past 11 will "ring in the new year" with a good book and a beer. Or snoring, time will tell which!

    All of the plans sound like a lot of fun!
