Holidays and Family

Looking forward to spending some time with the family for the holidays. Every Christmas Eve for the last 30 years, we have had a big party for our family and friends. We’d sometimes have almost 100 people in my parents’ house and people would eat their dinner on the sofa, the stairs, the beds…basically anywhere there was space. But nowadays, the number of guests is much more manageable with 30-40 people coming for dinner. I miss those days, though, when all of our high school friends would come, there were kids running around all over the house, when people would come from all over California for the annual meeting of the Wong Family (my mother’s side). Then on Christmas Day, it would be much quieter. Sometimes we drove to Sacramento for a holiday party, but now we usually hang out at home – just the dogs and the parents and us.

This weekend I paid a quick visit to my parents’ house for a dinner with a good family friend, N. Her family was visiting from the Washington, D.C. area and it was the first time I met her little girl, K. Both mom and daughter are two of the most gorgeous girls I know.

Teresa’s 29th Birthday

Well, my little sister just turned 29, so there’s no denying the fact that I’m squarely in my 30’s. Ouch!

We had a birthday dinner for her last night at my parents’ house, so I thought I’d share some pics of her from last year and some from this year. What a difference a year makes!

At a spry young 28…

Now a more sophisticated 29. Enjoy the final year of your twenties…

Teresa’s no domestic goddess, so when she tries to look like one, it’s a little creepy.

One of her gifts, rice bowls from Currents in San Francisco.

The dessert course consisted of amaretto cookies and ice cream and a petite gateau for the birthday girl
