the last bits of 2011

ChrisMars; merging Mars's birthday and Secret Santa with the girls into one extravaganza.

With the girls. Dresses were mandatory.

My beautiful (what is humility, anyway?) wrapping job using house products from around Spyo's condo (carnation - red napkins, wrapping paper - paper bag, twine - leftover from turkey, and ribbon - also leftover).


3 hours, 8 people and 12 bottles of wine.

Pho Ho Ho Homemade fare to compensate for all the indulging we did.

Starting the day with Vietnamese goi cuon. I'm not even going to be modest about this, but my peanut sauce is wonderfully delicious.

Ingredients all laid out. In our typical manner, we happily ate the final product and only after we have slurped down every last bite that we remember to take a good photo.

(Most of our get-togethers are themed and always revolved around food and they are usually cleverly named by Ynamonster).
