So it is only 9 pm here in the Central Time Zone, however fireworks are being shot off regularly. The dog is quivering and trying to find a safe place, but failing miserably.
We've had our homemade pizza with salad dinner (I forgot to take pictures though) and Star Wars is playing in the background. We definitely won't make it through all three tonight - we started too late.
As for the food prep, tomorrow's menu is Greek and Aaron has made a garlic sauce so far. He also has vegetables roasting in the oven for our favorite orzo pasta dish from Barefoot Contessa and black-eyed peas cooking for a new dish we found in our Greek cookbook for a Warm Black-Eyed Pea Salad. After all, this is the South and we must have our black-eyed peas on NYD. He has visions of making homemade pita bread as well. My job in all of this? Stay entertained and entertaining!
All in all, another typical New Year's Eve in the Gallagher household. Be safe and happy!
