It's the last day of the year. I spent the day baking. Gingerbread Men and a Crouching Tiger Hidden Zebra cake (a.k.a. Stripy Cake). Dessert. My contribution to tonights party and buffet.
There was so much food. I'm sure we could have fed the whole of Birmingham with the amount that was there. We only managed to scratch the surface.
There was eating, dancing, drinking, laughter. More drinking, eating, laughter and dancing. The way the year should end. The way we should start the New Year. The way we should want it to continue.
A Spanish tradition is to eat a grape and make a wish on each of the 12 dongs that lead up to midnight. The rush of having to eat a grape on each of the dongs meant I forgot to make a wish after each grape.
I ended up making one big wish. Let's see if this year it comes true.
Happy New Year!
