i cant believe its 2012. the holiday season was a good one: the buck came and left, the haggis' mums here until middle of this week and then its back to BAU which will be sad as ive really enjoyed my time of leisure.
this years festivities included christmas eve dinner spent at the china club which was very nice. they did a traditional tea ceremony, best ive seen yet, and the noodle making dance, which was fun. here's a video of the noodle chef:
the next day, we did a big lunch with over twenty people at a restaurant called oolaa (which was average) for christmas lunch. new year was way too much champagne at the pawn but first, i ordered and cooked maine lobsters for the surf portion of our surf & turf dinner! the brits really liked the lobsters and the boy really got into it from nuts to bolts with putting them into the pot and tearing into them at the table.
for christmas, i received a lot of goodies including a mushroom garden and best of all a trip to nepal for easter. i cant wait to head off, see katmandu, the surrounding villages and of course, everest! so until there is more, here are some pictures to start off the new year - best wishes to you all:
