We may have had a sedate NYE to ring in 2025, but others did not. They are too wild for us.
Romey says, “cheers mom!”

When you want that, you have to do this. (Recipe here.)
And then this.
Which makes for a quiet but delicious New Years celebration. We’re saving up our energy for 5/25/25.
Cheers!

We blame Disney or the Force or the pursuasive power of a massive advertising budget—but no matter the blame, it was Star Wars!
The bar all dressed up in Star Wars
The cast of characters was large.
Jack as Captain Phasma
The Dark Side was well represented. Joe as the Emperor.
Ant (with stubble!) as Obi-wan
Amy as Twi’lek and Jen as Jabba’s slave girl
Yours truly as old Luke
Anna as Rea with Charlie as Han Solo with new improved weaponry
The blankens
Eli as Han Solo
Peggy as a bar denizen, Jay as Obi-wan
Allen as a Lucasfilm producer wielding cash
Best of all: Laura as Leia
Buns provided by the Cookie Guy
Party time, fueled by adulterated champagne.

Steal your face

Fancy pants New Years means caviar and oysters to start, followed by Bach, then fondue, with sorbet for dessert. Fueled by champagne and great friends.

Gary McGraw, 2nd violin
John Bailey, cello (reading from the piano score)
First Movement: Vivace
Second Movement: Largo, ma non tanto
Third Movement: Allegro
Oh yeah, and twinkies. Red flavor.
