Happy New Year’s to All My Readers and Friends
I hope you are all planning a wonderful celebration. I am having a little pre-dinner celebration and then my husband and I are meeting my brother and sister-in-law (a yearly tradition) and having a wonderful Italian dinner – and we’ll be ringing in the New Year at the restaurant. I am looking forward to it!
On the table I put about 4 or 5 clocks. A great idea is to set them at different times (New York, San Francisco, Paris etc) and then you’ll have an excuse to have a drink or a kiss whenever it’s midnight somewhere!!
Pre-celebration we will be having a little bubbly and some snacks because our dinner reservation is not until 9PM. If it’s not too late, we may go to my nephew’s house after midnight because that’s his birthday – January 1.
For New Year’s morning, the table will already be set for a wonderful breakfast…we’ll just add some orange juice to the champagne for a Mimosa.
So for tonight – don’t deny yourself some chocolate and bubbly. You’ll start a new leaf tomorrow!
Are you making any resolutions? I have a few – but if I can stick to just one or two (losing weight…is the biggest one), I will be happy.
So, please be safe and have a wonderful and healthy New Year. Let me know about your resolutions and how you celebrated in the comments below. Thank you for coming by!
Happy 2014! I still can’t believe that that’s the year it is now. Unbelievable…where does the time go?

Thanks so much Marty. I have to remember to always go to your site when you have your party. I hope you had fun on New Year’s Eve – and here’s wishing you a happy and healthy 2014!
What a wonderful celebration and you do not have to cook dinner! My kind of party. Love all of the gold with black accents – very pretty. I also like the idea of the clocks set for different time zones – getting to toast for new year’s several times seems like a winner to me. Best wishes for a wonderful 2014!
Thanks for commenting Diane. Now I have to come over to your blog – I love the name!! Sounds like me. Wishing you a very happy 2014 as well!
Cute Table! I hope you had a nice celebration! Those Mimosas sound good!!
Thanks Ann – the mimosas were good! I have to pop over to your blog. The name is so intriguing! Thanks for commenting.
Linda,
Exquisite New Years celebration tablescape, dear one!!!
I, too, have a traditional New Year day menu with Italian food!
This year, our plans were changed to attend a former students wedding.
However, you have inspired me to “take note” for our new Tradition
of a possible New Year Brunch 2015!!!

Hi Pat…sorry a little late in replying. Thanks so much for your lovely comments! I hope you had a great time at your former student’s wedding. That’s definitely different for New Year’s. Have a great 2014!
