Every year since we got married, Kathleen and I have spent Christmas Eve at home making a special dinner. The first year was Cornish game hens, then a whole roasted turkey, and this year we made rack of lamb.

Seared on the stove-top, now roasting in the oven:

Ready to eat!

It was awesome. This qualifies as the most expensive meal I’ve ever prepared at home, but was totally worth it.

I may have said this before… but this year, I am going to start using this thing more.
We spent NYE this year at home with our friend James, visiting from Edinburgh, and his girlfriend Alex from England.

Stayed up waaay too late catching up and just having good ‘ol James times. Then went to our traditional new years day lunch at Cafe Bombay.
Had a great 11 days off, but it’s over and I’m back at work.
