This weekend was busy. Not to mention that it capped off my last week of work, but it seemed that every minute was spoken for throughout. Not the best idea when you are 9 months pregnant. A nap was definitely in order on Sunday.<\/p>\n

\"dsc_0180sm.jpg\"<\/a>After my work party on Friday afternoon (which was at Giovanni’s on Preston street…DELISH!), we headed over Chez Pundyk\/Wylie for some good ol’ fashioned hat game fun. It was the third such get-together and Dan and I were looking forward to it. Much of the review can be found on Kris’ blog<\/a>, so I won’t repeat it here. Except to say that I, and my partner, won! And though it wasn’t the same partner (Ed last year and Kurtis this year), that makes it two in a row for me. I’m actually the hat game champion. I deserve a prize…or at least some public recognition.<\/p>\n

Saturday was also busy. Early in the day my friend and favourite photographer, Angela, came over to take pictures and answer all my camera\/photo-taking questions. Lucky for me she’s is patient. Once I returned her back to her non-annoying question-answering life, it was time to prepare for Christmas Fancy 2006.<\/p>\n

\"dsc_0265sm.jpg\"<\/a>Every year since Dan and I have been together, we and the Nicholses have celebrated the holiday season with a fancy dinner out on the town. A lot has changed since that first dinner at the Eclectic Noodle 4 years ago…Jen and Lisa have moved away, we met Sonja and Mark and Jason (and now Laura and Dean) who have since started joining us, and well this year, I could barely fit between the wall and the table.<\/p>\n

But even with all the changes, we always look forward to Christmas Fancy. This year we made reservations at Metropolitain and other than the ridiculously sloooooooow service, I had no complaints. My meal was phenom. I heard that the other liked theirs too, but I think I won. Definitely get the pork tenderloin if you go. Mouth watering.<\/p>\n

We left earlish (11:30) because my parents were arriving from Virginia, but I hear the rest of the night was awesome. We’ll definitely be in for the long haul next year…if we can find a sitter.<\/p>\n
