Well, it really was yesterday but we had a lazy day then and just watched TV like the New Year's concert from Vienna that we watch every year. A very nice tradition.
Otherwise nothing much happened. We had leftovers from New Year's Eve.
I made a cold Avocad soup with shrimps as a starter and to that I made rolls with Västerbottencheese.
Main course was fillet of beef with potatoe gratin made of almond potatoe (I don't know if you have it in USA but it's a delicacy here) and of course Västerbotten ;-) and garlic and to that a green sallat.
For dessert I made tosca pears with whipped cream.
We ate slowly and enjoyed each dish and it took us around 2 1/2 hours to eat.
At midnight we watched all the fireworks from our balcony. We have this amazing view and can see 360 and all the way into Stockholm. It was a clear night which made it extra special.
But that was then and now is now and the new year began today with work :-)
January is a month with lots of work since it's the time to do the books for 2011. So I will be busy I think until mid February.
Did I say I visited my Mom on New Year's Eve? I brought her a bottle of champagne. She has always enjoyed it earlier so why not now. She was actually quite present although she can't talk that well.
Well I hope your year has started good and will continue doing so.
