New Years Family Style

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas!  We had a nice holiday and actually continue to relax as my husband is off from work this week.  My boys are starting to really look forward to New Year’s Eve – the one day they get to stay up until midnight each year.  They have been asking throughout the year – “when is that one day we get to stay up really really late?”  Last year they zonked about 11:15, so we’ll see if they actually make it this year. 

 I was trying to decide what to make for New Year’s Goodies, and I came across this recipe for Chocolate Fondue and Egg Nog Pound Cake.  I just might have to try it!  The boys actually want to try out a new cottage shaped bundt cake pan we received for Christmas, so we might end up with cake instead… we’ll see! 

 Anyway, I want to wish you a Happy New Year and I look forward to sharing recipes, cooking tips, and more with you in 2008!
