77. Go on a date with J once a month. (December 09)

Ah New Years - that time where we can say adieu to the old and welcome the new.

Living in New York, New Years is kinda a big deal...the ball dropping, ridiculous amounts of tourists, 1/2 days at work to avoid said tourists.

This year J and I had a low key celebration due to the ridiculous cold weather and snow. We went high class and I made yummy cheddar-beer fondue with all the fixings, stuffed mushrooms, and chocolate toffee.

A bottle of Korbel and a game of monopoly later - we started 2010. All in all - a stellar date night with J.
