a random holiday update

my mom surprised me with this camera a few weeks ago. i wasn't expecting it....  i'm glad i finally have a nice camera to take pictures of my food with. now i'm really looking forward to more food blogging for 2012.

christmas flowers

i think i enjoyed this spot on my couch way too much in december. how long is "too long" to keep your tree up after christmas is over? 
 


for christmas i made some people compound butter. 









i spent christmas eve at city oyster with my mom, christalyn, and our friend aaron. matt was working and was our server :) 


after dinner, matt and i headed to his aunt and uncle's for white elephant and some family time. 
we got back row seats. twas fun!


 a good amount of our friends came down to visit and we all hung out and had a grand old time... i really wish i had my close friends closer. (really?) the past few weeks have been total exhaustion for me. i am an adult now. i like my sleep (always have) and find it ridiculous how much people like to drink (way too often).

this may have been breakfast a few times. hate hangovers. 

drew hosted a holiday party. noah graciously took great photos of it. 




i made greek salad skewers for sierra's holiday get together.

those salad skewers were too delicious for WORDS.

Yay new camera! Also, I think I need to try this compound butter stuff. I have a feeling it would make my toast 100% more delicious.
