Happy New Year!

Growing up, New Year's was always a special time for my Mom and me.  As the youngest, by a large margin in years, it often was just my mom and I at home for New Year's eve.  She would make it as special as she could while my siblings were out at cool church dances inside of shopping malls. 

Every year she would prepare a dinner of special items, things outside of our norm, we would sit on the couch with our spread in front of us and we would watch TV.

Tonight, I did the same for my kids.  It was frozen pizza, fruit, Cheeto's and Ritz crackers.  A feast for champions!  We had Martinelli's and made a toast of "Cheers" while we watch Transformers.
