Meerrrrry Christmas (or Happy Holidays!)

DSCN9992

I’m at my in-laws, and we are definitely *celebrating* the season.  This means loads of cookies and wine.  I am starting to feel off on sweets. 

 

On the drive over, I ate a Gingerbread cookie.

When we got to our destination, I had a plate of cheese and crackers.  I also proclaimed loudly that I needed a cocktail, so my future sister-in-law poured me some wine.

We drank, sat in the hot tub, and drank some more.  My sister-in-law’s new boyfriend (who is awesome) made me a Coconut Rum Cocktail with fresh fruit and cranberry juice.

Everyone decided they didn’t want to cook or wash dishes, so we ordered Thai Food.  I had a little bit of everything:

Including VERY spicy shrimp!

It was literally SO spicy that I had to go get a glass of milk to wash it down.  Everyone was complaining about how insanely spicy the food was!  It was kind of odd in its spicy-ness! Like a chef had accidently dumped a bunch of chili powder into our dishes.

 

I finished off dinner with another glass of wine (probably number three by this point) and a Chocolate Oreo.

I want to wish each of you a lovely Christmas night, and if you don’t celebrate the holiday, I hope you have a special Holiday season!

 

Peace on Earth and good will to all!

 

xoxo,

Caitlin
