New Year's Eve

We had a really nice, cozy New Year's Eve with lots of fireworks. We had a panoramic view of most of the fireworks in town. Lots of people were shooting fireworks and a lot of them were very close to our balcony, so we got a great show!
We also shot off small fireworks and firecrackers outside, it was fun!
We made some delicious appetizers and we, of course had champagnes.
I also got to talk to my family on Skype, which was nice. 



Hungarian Champagnes









Lemon - Parsley Gougeres





Prosciutto - Basil Crostini





Bacon - Wrapped Potatoes & Potato Salad Bites & Grilled Prosciutto - Wrapped Figs with Blue Cheese and Pecans





Baked Lobster with Scallops












Happy New Year!









Some of my Christmas Presents



An Exercise Bike (I've always wanted one!)



Retro Humor stuff (I just love them!)



Fantasy Perfume by Britney Spears
Fantasy is the second fragrance release from Britney Spears under the Elizabeth Arden label. This is a love potion locked up in an attractive bottle adorned with Swarovski crystals. It opens with fruity mix of litchi, golden quince and kiwi. The provocative heart is composed of jasmine and white chocolate. The base combines orris root, musk and woods.
I have never tried any celebrity perfumes before. My all time favorite perfume is Bright Crystal by Versace, but this winter I wanted something different. Something young and sweet. I really liked the smell of this, I think it's a great winter perfume, it's warm and sensual. It's sweet and candy-like, but it's a nice blend and not too strong. It's also long lasting



Jewelries



Bath & Body products and Make Up



Scrapbook Kit



Sunglasses (as my black ones broke last summer)
