Yesterday, I went to brunch with Allison. We went to Tallulah. It's the restaurant in a new hotel in town.
We had a glass of champagne. So good! I had the crab & shrimp frittata. It was really good. I didn't get a picture because it took forever. Our waitress told us that "the fritatta had to be re-made". Hmmmm. OK. Anyway, I was starving when it came & forgot about pictures.
I LOVED the Christmas trees in the lobby.
Of course these are iPhone pics but the trees below were my faves! The tree was actually gold.
The pictures don't do them justice. Gold tree with silver, gold & bronze ornaments. So, so pretty.
The close up doesn't do it justice either. There was more gold than silver but the combo was so pretty.
Another one.
Loved this ornament.
We did a little shopping after brunch. I picked up the Urban Decay eyeshadow primer. I was told it was a must. I'll let you know.
Today I was back at work but I only had to work until noon. I met friends for lunch.
Lane is our Godchild. We exchanged Christmas gifts. I got a very cute necklace & earrings.
Me, Vicki & Lane. My hair was in a ponytail. I don't like the way it looks but I didn't feel like doing anything more to it this morning.
Me & Lane. Vicki's niece Simone joined us too. I just realized we didn't get a pic. I can't believe how grown she is. Time flies.
A bunch of our friends are spending NYE in Pass Christian at our friends house. Since we had to work & Dean still isn't well, we stayed home. I got a text message from one of our friends this afternoon telling me to stop by on my way home because they had something for me.
I was very excited to see this! Dave makes this appetizer a lot & I love it. It's assorted cheeses, olives, artichokes, mushrooms, red peppers & some sort of salami or sausage or something. I don't generally like salami or sausage but I love this stuff. He said since we couldn't be with them he made us our own. I was very excited. We snacked on it while watching the LSU game. I'm wondering if I'll make it to the end.........Toodles!
Hope you are feeling better and that you went to sleep before you saw the end of the game!! We had so much fun at the game but man was Brandon upset. All the way back to our hotel Brandon was giving Les Miles heck!! ;)
