New Year's Day - 2024

We were up early New Year’s Day (1/1/24) to get everything ready for our guests:

-all of the additions to the egg casserole

who started to show up at 10 AM. I think we got pictures of most of them....although I was distressed at just how many friends are sick this year (and graciously stayed home) and many of them have been sick for WEEKS :~(:

-Laura & Dave

-Paula

-Gale & Phil

-Sue & Dennis

-Carol & Ed

-Doug

-Kay & Pete

-new neighbor Nancy

-Michael and Joann

-Nancy & Ginny

-Susan

-Laura & Pam

-Dave, Paula, Sue, Dennis

-Sue, Dennis, Gale, Phil, Laura

We had tons of fabulous food…and lots of wonderful conversations, and I think everyone started the new year in a great frame of mind.

After cleaning up (it took 2 full runs of the dishwasher....but eventually everything was done), Michael and I read for awhile (and I may have napped :~), before he headed outside to play with Freya, and I headed to the studio to sew a bit. I’m working on some blocks that I started at the Fiber Floozie retreat…..currently on the design wall and slowly being sewn together. Michael and I were still full from the brunch, so we really didn’t have dinner and just watched some regular TV in the evening.

A blast from the past for New Year’s Day - https://foodandfiberfloozie.blogspot.com/2014/01/whenmichael-and-i-moved-to-south.html
