Gift lavishly, celebrate stylishly, entertain luxuriously, and look your best, no matter your income....
Those 10 and so much more. You have a delightful blog as we followers can all attest. I hope you had lovely Christmas with your family and managed to relax, enjoy and definitely reflect on your eventful year. It is so hot here today that I can do no more than put my feet up and read, do a little bit of internet, maybe a movie later and general relaxation. I have found a recipe that I will make for dinner tonight (a thai chicken salad) and a creme caramel just to be a bit creative although that needs to stay in the fridge so it will be for tomorrow. Very best wishes for you in 2019. Love Janiebabe xx

DeleteDear Mimi,
ReplyDeleteThank you for putting this together! I'm having fun revisiting other past posts as well. I hope 2019 is a great year for you! I'll be going into it with your motherly advice for sure!!
Lots of love, Kelsey
Thankyou Kelsey. I'm looking forward to 2019! Mimi xxx
DeleteSoon after Christmas, Japanese people start preparing for the year-end and New Year’s events.
ReplyDeleteCompared to Christmas, many of these events are based on Japanese tradition and are deeply related to religion.
The end-of-year party is called “bonenkai” in Japanese. “Bonen” means to forget (the worries of) the past year.
People are busy with events on New Year’s Eve.
Ryoma, I love that idea of 'Bonen'. I will adopt that for 2019. Thankyou so much for sharing. Mimi :)
DeleteLoved your retrospective, love your CAN DO attitude and want to wish you and your family all the best for 2019!
ReplyDeleteAlso thinking of you as I try to empty the fridge of the Christmas food, so I've made two huge pots of pea and ham soup, one of chicken stock and also frozen some turkey meat. Not thinking about the shortbread, rum balls, leftover cassata or chocolates.
Christmas is wonderful but I'm glad it's over.
All the best,
Deborah
Thankyou Deborah. Aaargh! The leftovers, right? But we make the most of them. Surely it's the only time we buy a whole ham? All the best for the year ahead. Mimi xxx
