As we bid farewell to 2012, what better way to celebrate than with an adventurous, five-course meal. Hosted by
The 5chw4r7zes and prepared by
The Nomeratis, my friends and I embarked on our exotic dinner filled with dishes such as wild boar, rabbit, lamb bacon, and duck eggs.
Nathan provided a delicious loaf of homemade bread to start out the meal,
Jeff brought two quarts of decadent ice cream, and many others provided the spirits. Everything at our table was made-from-scratch and tasted fantastic.
The evening was filled with plenty of laughs, heaping portions of savory food, and the company of some of my favorite people. There's no where I'd rather be than ringing in the new year surrounded by wonderful friends.
