Sorry if I upset anyone with my last bit of babbling, folks. Happy new year to everyone.
New Year's dinner today was in the style of the old country: sauerkraut with sausages (kielbasa and hot dogs), mashed potatos, potato-onion pierogies, and pickles.
I had a good time new year's eve, as well: after the ball dropped, I appeared out of nowhere with a bottle of whiskey, took a healthy belt, and recited auld lang syne in the proper dialect. The Californians asked me if I could turn on my subtitles.
