A New Year

Yesterday evening we hosted a new year's eve party for a few friends. I made this yummy chili dip for the first time to serve for the party as well as some caramel dip with apples and a plate of Christmas cookies. Our guests brought snacks to share as well.

At 9:00 we did an early countdown to the new year for the kids and then sent them to bed shortly after. We had some sparkling grape juice for the kids, but we forgot all about it when they had their countdown. Oh, well!

Just before midnight we all got something to drink (most of us elected to drink the sparkling grape juice that had been meant for the kids) and turned on the tv to see the "live" taped clip of the ball dropping in New York to ring in the new year. All our guests left by 12:30.

This morning I worked on listing my first ever item on eBay. I've bought items off eBay before and haven't had any problems, but this is the first time I'm selling something there. I'm nervous about it, but I'm sure it will go alright.
