The thing about holidays is that they tend to be annual, marking time in a helpful way for disoriented people like me. So during last night’s New Year’s Eve celebrations I was reminded of how we spent New Year’s last year. We were in Austin, with my besties Jimmy and Skyler and the clan. Jimmy made a crazy fabulous Spanish feast, including way too many mussels. So Jimmy and I tried to polish them off in our standard, gluttonous fashion.
“These mussels are either going to go in our faces, or in the trash can,” Jimmy said. “So we’re gonna get as many in our faces as possible.” (This is after we had already collectively feasted for the previous two hours. But we didn’t want the mussels to go to waste.)
You can hear someone in the background saying, “I love mussels as much as the next person, but that’s sick.”
Simple and effective! Thank you Mary for answering about the lemon slice directly on my blog, it is a good way actually, sometime comments get lost because we lack the time to go back to the older posts (I try to, but at present I have limited internet connection!).have a good dayAlessandra
