Day 62 - Xmas Dinner Party

Got up yesterday morning and cleaned my flat. I hadn't cleaned it properly in 2 weeks. I'd vacuumed and stuff but not a full clean. Was so good to get it all spic and span again.

Then I cooked an eggplant parmigiana to take to my sister's for our Xmas dinner party with my best mate and her husband.

It was a nice cruisy night, with the girls being very well behaved and sleeping most of the time. We ate dinner over a few hours and enjoyed some nice wine. We waited till my BIL came home (he was at his work Xmas party) to open presents.

My sister remarked that last year our dinner party was so different. She had cleaned the house, made dessert, bought flowers, set the table and had carols on. This year she was in her trakky daks and there was no flowers or table set. Aah, the joys of early motherhood. It won't always be like this, big sis! We had a great night despite of this, cos isn't Xmas about being together, not being together pretty???

Meal 1 - muesli with milk and berries

Meal 2 - apple

Meal 3 - 2 cooper pale ale

Meal 4 - 3 glasses of red wine
