Happy New Year!

Throwing a New Years Eve party has been a Hung/Perkowski tradition since 2008. Our celebrations have gotten smaller, become more casual, and a lot less drunk over time. Better if you ask us (and our friends). Instead of trying to make the entire dinner, we potlucked it. We supplied the prime rib and asked our friends to take care of everything else. But I still couldn't contain myself and made both the roast, lasagna, veggies, AND supplied cupcakes. How about we just let the photos do the talking?

Table dressed with our new plates and silverware!

Noisemakers to make it more festive.

Prime rib roasted with a salt crust via Pioneer Woman.

I probably should have roasted it for a tad bit longer...it was a little too rare for some.
The roast is actually bigger, the rare pieces are in the oven and not in the photo.

Note: you should scrape off the salt crust before cutting into it...I had it all over my kitchen floor.

Roasted veggies (brussel sprouts, carrots, and summer squash).

Heavenly mashed potatoes. There was bacon in it. Enough said.

Single serving turkey lasagna via Can You Stay for Dinner.

Crazy awesome salad bar.

Phil's salad before nuts and dressing.

Pecan and Dutch Apple pies.

Wedding cupcakes! No seriously, those are cupcakes from our wedding.
They sent us home with 2 dozen cupcakes that I threw into a tupperware container and then froze.

Space Attack! This board game has a sound track.
That's right, we are all drinking coffee.



Wishing you a happy, healthy, and wealthy new year! (Maybe that last part is just what Chinese people say to each other.)
