Happy New Year

My husband and I aren’t big fans of the New Year’s holiday—for all the talk of Christmas being a manufactured holiday, New Year’s feels more so to us. Add to that the number of unsafe drivers (i.e., drinkers) on New Year’s Eve and it almost always feels like a night to stay safely at home. So we celebrated a night early this year, with a fabulous meal at Hapa Izakaya (Japanese tapas) and gelato afterwards. You have to be happy with a climate that requires a coat, but permits you to eat gelato at the same time.

Tonight we are having black-eyed beans? peas? (whatever, it also seems to involve ham), the smell of which is quietly permeating everything we own as I write this.

Have a safe and happy New Year, everyone.
