Good Evening Trippyville,
Well I'm catching up as usual and want to wish everyone a belated Merry Christmas.
We hosted 22 for Christmas Dinner with 2 spending the night. I cooked 9.5lbs of Beef Tenderloin on the Weber and Mrs. Brew prepared all of the traditional Christmas fare. It was a wonderful night and all was right with the world even if for only one night. We finally had our personal Christmas morning today and I finally had time to catch up to all of our on-line family. The cats are still playing in the wrapping paper which I believe is their favorite part of this season. We wish each one of you the very best for this holiday season and will toast one for everyone during our 20th annual New Year's eve bash. I expect about 30 folks for that evening with several overnight guests. I typically do a late-night/early-morning pancake breakfast for anyone who wishes to stay that long and am sending an open-invitation to any of the members of Trippyville "ala Delilah" should you be anywhere near Noblesville, IN for the 31st/1st. We will have a ton of food and the bar & fridge are stocked to the hilt. Champagne and Asti Spumante will be flowing heavily as the ball lowers from it's upper most position. We celebrate every time zone so you are welcome to stop after the EST celebration.
Oh and per a request by Bert some time ago, I am going to post a "few" PICs of Mrs. Brew's efforts for the holidays. On December 5th she told me that she was completely stressed because she was already a day behind on her decorations and goodie baking for the holidays. This while I took two days off to help her decorate the outside of the house and property. However, it wouldn't be the same without all of her effort. Sorry if you're already over it for this year
