New Year's Eve… Good intentions
New Year's Eve never really turns out how you imagine it to be. I don't ever remember a New Year's where all of my wildest dreams came true. They all start out with good intentions. You have a great party to go to, you have a really great outfit, there's some great guy who's going to be at the party, all your friends are going to be there… Blah blah blah. But we know it never ends up that way. One memorable New Year's Eve I spent trapped in a snowstorm in Aspen in a swinging gondola in the middle of nowhere with Diandra Douglas and Yolanda Hadid Foster fighting over a cell phone so we could call our children and tell them we were going to die. That was fun. We could not get ahold of our children because they, in turn, locked themselves out of the house and were huddled together with the housekeeper/babysitter in the shed surviving on Carmel coated apple lollipops. Jesus Christ.
It all starts off good with decorations…
A little champagne in lovely glasses…
Good food like mini beef Wellingtons, baby lamb chops, roasted potatoes with chives and bacon and blue cheese, convenient little french fries in ketchup, gourmet baby burgers and you can never go wrong with won tons...
Super cute desserts are served…
Everyone is having a good time with good friends and cute boys… And then just after midnight things take a turn for the worse as usual...
Happy New Year's Eve from your reality check, Ellie. XO XO
This last photo of the 3 chicks is classic. Funniest photos ever ever. I can't believe there are no comments about them -- perhaps if you have more readers now (?), a re-post of this as we approach new years?. This is one of your funniest posts, and I'm sure others would appreciate your cafe' decorating efforts as much as I did. You crack me up. Michelle
