Happy New Year!

Well, another new year is here, and it has been quite some time some my last post. But never fear, faithful readers (many of whom have repeatedly bugged me to update this blog!), but one of my new year's resolutions is to keep this blog updated more regularly, and I promise to do my best. Since it has been so long since my last post, there's a lot to be said, but I'll start out slow and try to post frequently to catch up to now.

The biggest news of the past few months was my sister Mallory's wedding on October 11 to my new brother-in-law, Art. Minus a few hiccups and a little bit of inclement weather, it was a beautiful and wonderful ceremony held outside at my parent's home, Green Mansion (or as I sometimes like to refer to it, the Summer Palace). I had the honor of being chief groomsman and best man to Art, and I am so happy and thrilled for the two of them. They honeymooned in Yosemite afterwards (how cool is that?) and are now back home in Brooklyn in happily wedded bliss. For my part, I got to meet lots of really cool and fun people, friends of Mallory's and Art's, old family friends, and family I haven't seen in a long time. Over all, it was an exciting, fun, and special time I will always treasure.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone! My Thanksgiving was pretty low-key this year. I chose not to make the pilgrimage down to the parents' (after all, what's the point of going to the Summer Palace if it's not summer?). Instead, I inagurated my new cooking skills (such as they are) by cooking Pad Thai in my new wok, and it was excellent! That's actually another of my new year's resolutions, to actually cook more, as opposed to microwaiving and making effectively instant foods. The wok's getting a bit of a workout so far, but I still need to do more. I need to set aside more time and plan more, I guess....

Merry Christmas to everyone, too. Pretty low-key for me this year as well, but I did spend it with the family and all was good. Hope everyone out there had a good holiday season, and I promise to update more! Hopefully, I'll soon have some news on other resolutions I've made....Stay tuned!
