We soaked some strawberries and blueberries in champagne for an hour or so. Then, we layered said champagne-soaked berries with chocolate sauce and whipped cream. It was DE-licious. So good. I want to soak all my fruit in champagne.
I though I wasn't going to make it until midnight as I was really full and sleepy, but I managed to stay awake until 12:30! Go me! It was a great New Years Eve and I'm so happy I got to share it with my amazing husband.
The next morning I got breakfast in bed (I told you my husband was amazing) and watched the Rose Parade on HGTV. Did I mention they're coming in two very short weeks?? Well they are. Last week I went to the gym six days in a row. New Years Day was my one day off and today I was back in the gym. I haven't really been dieting, but I promise I'm going to start that tomorrow. I'm thinking low carb, but also low fat. We'll see if I can handle it. I'm not so good at dieting...
My husband went to a hockey game with a friend last night, so I went over to my parents' for dinner. They bought live crab and it totally freaked me out!
I was very disturbed with how much they were wiggling around and couldn't watch as they put them in the pot of boiling water. I didn't have a problem eating them, though...
For dessert, we re-created the layered champagne berry delights, but added some sparklers!
I plan on having this same dessert as often as possible.
With just two weeks until filming, I have a whole lotta stuff to get done. I'll post a list of everything I need to do and update as I check stuff off.
How was your NYE and NYD? Do you have a quiet celebration or a big loud crazy one?
