My Holidays…
Saturday, December 27th, 2008This sounds kinda sad or even lame, but DONT feel sorry for me, because this is the one day a year where I dont do anything work related – I do not even touch the computer, and spend a whole day alone, doing whatever the hell I want.
Yes, I spent Christmas Alone, but it was actually really nice, because, I spent Christmas Eve, talking to all my relatives via video cam on Skype. So it was like I was there with them while they were celebrating Christmas Day in Australia.
Christmas day I cooked up an Aussie storm! Although its summer in Australia and for Xmas we usually have lots of seafood and cold fruit and veges. But I made a traditional Australian Roast Lamb with Mint Sauce, Yorkshire puddings (these are not desserts, you eat them with your meal), and roasted veges and gravy. For dessert I had brandy fruit pudding with home-made Aussie Custard (yes they do not have this over here in the US).
Now, you might think I’m crazy cooking all this food, but I was feeling kinda homesick and needed something traditional to cheer me up. So I’ve had plenty of leftovers. And anyone who has come over to my place, is forced to sit down and eat before they leave. Lol.
Yesterday, I went on a shopping spree on Melrose. I’m still a bargain shopper and got some great deals, but wow, I went a little overboard! Its all good though, I now have plenty of new outfits for AVN in Vegas this January. Although I’m not signing at the convention, but I will be around, talking business with companies. So if you see me, dont be shy, come and say hi!
Talk soon
luv mon xoxo
