Went over to L and J's for a champagne and dessert. L took the effort to melt a brie (with honey and walnuts) for the humans, do an avocado dip and tortilla chips too. The husband and I had dinner before this, as did L and J. But the brie and crackers totally brought us over to breakfast too. Hahaha.
For all that 2024 was, we got by unscathed. We're okay. We're largely privileged. So we count our blessings and rang in the new year with old friends. Had that over a good champagne and a bottle of delicious red. Always accompanied by great conversation.
Nowadays, no matter where we are — restaurants or friends' homes, we leave parties at 10pm. Or 10.30pm if they're near our home. Choya needs her bedtime pee and supper, and I have chores to do before bedtime. I need to work around the weather and the monsoon rains too. So I need the extra hours to potter about. No more staying up till midnight or whatever to drink. I can't be bothered anymore. I NEED MY SLEEP.
There wasn't just brie for the humans. L sent us home with tubs of mini-sized brie for Choya. At 25g per tub, it's quite perfect for me to share with her. Hahaha! But as a festive treat, she got to split it equally with Ryo. I know their stomachs. No issues. Ryo's poop is forever mushy, and no matter how I work to get his poop up firm, it's not going to be useful since he's going home. I need 12 weeks to do it. This short duration isn't enough. As for Choya, she was so thrilled with all the cheese. Of course her poop was solid even after all the Beemster and brie. Heh!
