BambooLodges- Big MAHALO for hosting pre and post New Year's at your place and doing the raffle!! The Chef glass float I was able to 'walk away with' will get a place of honor in the Lagoon! (And thanks Pupule for not giving me a black eye fighting over dibs.. )

Wow what a party!

Great turnout, thanks to eveyone who made it to the Chef on NYE. It was a pleasure to have Capt'n Skully & Formikahini in Chi-Town to help ring it in. Lots of fun was had by all. I think Coalbe has some photos we'll try and get posted later today! Anyone else got photos?

Mucho Mahalos & Happy New Year!!!!!!!!!

Thanks SO much for hosting the gang chez Vasta both before and after and for amassing the goodies, Dave and Coalbe, and thanks to everyone for making NYE everything I'd wanted it to be: good times with people I love, good food, good drink (and lots of it), and I didn't have to drive. Couldn't imagine enjoying it more

Now to start training my liver for Bargoylapalooza.
Well, maybe I can give it a week's rest first...
