Why Hello There

The last post of the year will be a scheduled one because I'm currently in La Tasca at the Oxford Castle counting down with friends and strangers, sipping cava and eating grapes (Spanish tradition says you should eat 12 grapes, one for every month of the next year for good luck)

The end of the year is always bitter sweet - 2011, you've been good to me and I'll be sad to see you go. But we can't live in the past. And I can't wait to see what wonders 2012 has in store.

Happy New Year everyone! And whereever you are in the world, I hope you're having a good time with wonderful food and even better people who love you. I'll see you in 2012.
