The evening provided me the perfect opportunity to really try out my awesome present from Dad and step-mom Pat: a Nikon D3000. Tiny liqueurs and peppermint cookies provided the first stable subjects:

I was envious of Roommate Tina's real, grown-up Christmas tree:

I made a tray of evil brownies. Sadly, three-quarters still remain, so please feel free to come over and eat them all:

I might not be culturally Asian, but that doesn't mean I can't pose for an "Asian Girl" photo with Dorothy, Steph, and Roommate Tina:
(This photo took a few tries, since our dearphotographer said we looked like we were squinting. Ha!)

Happy New Year! Toasts and noise-makers!

Unintentional self-portrait:

Happy ten-year anniversary, friends! This is the decade that we will become lawyers, filmmakers, graphic designers, analysts, screenwriters, engineers, doctors of medicine, and [gasp!] doctors of philosophy. Our interests and talents are diverse...


...but our common interests bring us together:



After some of the guests departed, Roommate Tina showed us her amazing Dyson vacuum:

While her boyfriend Ben did dishes with finesse:

After settling down to watch part of "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince," the boyfriend and I walked home, a mostly full tray of evil brownies still in hand.
I am the only one up in the house. (Mom and Steve got home nearly an hour after we did.)
2010 will start with some banana bread I made yesterday.

Happy 2010, everyone! I hope you had a great kick-off to the New Year.
