new years eat

so josh and i started a new tradition to eat just about every hour during new years eve and new years day. new years eve was sushi (tuna, salmon, and shrimp tempura), goat cheese with honey and almonds on sesame flatbread, clam chowder, and cannolis. lots of tapas. and new years day was bloody mary's with loads of tabasco and horseradish. smoked salmon on bagels with cream cheese and capers. french toast with syrup and bacon for brunch. homemade guacamole and chips during the football games. shrimp cocktail. black eyed peas, thanks to my grandmother who made them for our family growing up. she is from the south and they are supposed to bring you good luck during the new year. i made them in honor of her passing last year. so cheers to 2009 and cheers to good food!
