    It's said that the way you spend New Year's Eve and begin the New Year sets the stage for the entire year to come. This New Year's Eve I'm celebrating with friends, family and a heart full of happiness and gratitude for all that has taken place in my life this year. My wish for you friends is a night filled with fun, celebration and excitement at the prospect of a fresh new year to come. Cheers! See you all in 2014.

      Ah, I'm too late to make this for New Year's. Oh well, I guess it's never too late to start the New Year off right. I will have to give this recipe a try-- thanks for sharing!
