My first Christmas away from home turned out better than I thought. To keep in the spirit of the holidays I made BobaFett's traditional Christmas dinner with a large rib eye roast, carrots, mushrooms, green beans, mash potatoes, and pie.
I had to vary the pie. Usually mom makes an apple pie because at home we have this great apple peeler, corer, and spiral slicer that allows one to be done in 5 min vs 5 hrs. I instead made a berry cherry pie. It was fabulous. To make it a bit more holiday cheery I also made snickerdoodles. However, after the meal, no one even got to the dessert.
The usual gang of peoples came over to celebrate. Douh got way too drunk to make it to Christmas and had to be escorted home by Yako at 10:30pm. I suppose the food gave everyone massive food coma. I still have very little furniture so we sat in dining table formation, on the ground, in front of the fireplace. Next year... hopefully, I'll be employed and making enough money to buy seating.
Well, the next event may be a new years party. I'll have to clear out my stuff for that though. That may actually get rowdy.
