At one time, Bill and I were thinking of hosting for NY Eve, and then Karen stepped up to offer her home for the singles for NY Eve. It sounds like too much fun!

Talking Hi Villages PL

Besides I plan on being in bed by 11:00 pm. (watch what you're thinking, I mean in bed by myself.)

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Villages PL, we'd probably be good friends (have a lot in common). All of the above is ditto for me plus I don't eat gluten or dairy and I don't drive at night (poor night vision). But I do dance

Happy New Year to all the TV friends I haven't met yet ! Rosalee in the frozen tundra of Oregon !

GO and HAVE FUN.........take an afternoon nap or sleep late the next morning......bring one of these appetizers or "side dishes" and you will be a hit. No cooking except for the grilled veggies.

Spinach Salad
A bed of Baby Spinach mixed with Sweet Dried Cranberry and Cracked Walnuts (Balsamic vinagrette dressing.....if desired....or optional)

Grilled Veggie Sandwiches:
Grilled Eggplant, Zucchini, Roasted Red Peppers, Pesto, and Provolone Cheese on Artisan Bread or Ciabatta Bread

Tomato Basil Salad:
Basil Pesto, Tomato, Baby Spinach and Fresh Mozzarella

Nuts are a perfect accompaniment to cocktails, beer and wine. Nutritionists no longer view nuts as salty, fatty and high-calorie junk food. Nuts are loaded with protein, fiber, vitamins, antioxidants and healthy monounsaturated fats. Spicy candied cashew recipes are out there if you want to go wild.

There are a number of vegan-friendly dips, including guacamole, hummus, white bean puree and lentil pates. These would be great to share. Everyone loves guacamole (avocado) dip with health chips.

Bruschetta is a classic Mediterranean appetizer and consists of grilled, garlic-rubbed bread topped with extra-virgin olive oil and toppings made with vegetables. If you use a baguette or other vegan-friendly bread, there are a variety of options. A classic Italian topping involves fresh tomatoes either sliced and topped with basil leaves or diced tomatoes with basil.

If you are in the mood, make some spring rolls.....very healthy oriental type appetizer.....

You don't have to change your screen name to open up a whole new world of friendship which is being offered to you with these singles.

The simplest thing to bring would be an assortment of nuts !!!!
I was just giving you other options above.

You could also bring the "roast beast" but abstain......just bring your carving knife. Remember. A reformed Grinch. Have fun.
SC:

Are you talking about me, and my friends?

You enjoy yourself too.......happy 2014.
It was a joke dude.
