:: Merry Christmas!!!
The Christmas, the dinner, and sharing joy moment...

You all may have read from my previous posting that I had this kinda wish to spend christmas in different but lovely way. Having a proper dinner with home made meals served was one part of it. And of course, sharing it with your closed ones is the most important things. And today was the christmas day. Yes, I admit exhaustion had hit me so badly this morning. While forcing myself to wake up this morning and the fact that I had my service at church today.

But everything was happy ending after all. I went to church, done my service, went home and watched some christmas specials on TV. Afterwards, I continued my cooking and finishing the preparation. It took hours, because I and my friends had to cook 3 main meals, sides and couple of quick entrees. Okay, this is the special christmas dinner menu :)

Honestly, it was undeniably tiring, but it was fun though. It was my second time throwing a party at home, but this one is absolutely different compare to the one before. I served more seasonal foods this time and the worse was I have never known how they taste should be like because I've never tried them before. And then, even though I only invite 8 people for the dinner, but the variety of foods are more complex this time. Last Housewarming party on early this year, we invited around 30 people, but we only provided less complicated foods because mostly we used instant ingredients. So yeah...this one was pretty a blast for my cooking experience :)

Anyway, that was pretty much my christmas was all about. Hope your christmas would be merry, too :) And finally, please allow me sincerelly to wish you all:

Merry Christmas 2005
