Day One of 2009

January 1, 2009  |  Food, Friends, My Life

And how was your first day of the year?

Mine was pretty wonderful, I spent it outside with family and friends (well not mine but they are close family friends).  As we all established a while back my two sisters Fee and Your Battlefield are back in Kuwait for Winter break and well they will leave soon, anyways so since today I’m not working I got a chance to spend most of it with them.  YBF wanted to meet up with a high school friend, so I told the rest of the siblings to invite a friend and we’d go to Chocolate Bar and enjoy the first day of the year.

So, Sister #4 invited her friend who happened to be the sister of Fee’s friend, and also the sister of Lulu’s friend (my younger sister).  So that entire family came along and Your Battlefield’s friend too, however they wanted to eat at Chilis while we wanted Chocolate!!! Mother decided last minute to join us, and so did father, however due to them not wanting some chocolate, I urged them to go have their anniversary dinner that they never had in Chilis.

So surrounded by laughter, good food, great weather, the year began beautifully for me.  It was also my Grandmother’s birthday and therefore at the stroke of midnight I had called her to wish her a Happy Birthday and as usual our chats lasted a short while.  I’m liking the beginning of the year already.  I hope it maintains a nice steady cheerful attitude and does not screw me up :)
