It was a fun Christmas Eve for Shosei this year and for his parents as well. We celebrated with a nice homemade Eve dinner of fish meuniere with a topping of cooked bell peppers and capers, fresh green salad, onion soup, bread, large oven roasted shrimp, roasted asparagus, and some cheese and olives as appetizers. Oh, and we opened a bottle of sparkling wine that was a complimentary gift from the resort we stayed in when we went to Gunma. Fortunate for us, we have a view of the still under construction tall radio tower from our balcony and it was lit up in a splendid silvery illumination around Christmas. Shosei was excited to see the Christmas tree lit up on our balcony. He was also happy to receive a cool book from Grandpa in Seattle. It was a special book which you can record your own voice and the reader can follow the story by listening to the recording. Note: Hallmark sells this kind of cool book.
New Years Day is fast approaching! A new year, a new day, another new resolution! My resolution for this year is to keep the resolution from 2011 and get better at it.
