Happy New Year 2011,

 Happy new year 2011 to all my friends, my family and to all other my blog readers!! Hopefully that new year will bring you as much happiness and pleasure as you expect and have wished.
In the evening of New Years Eve, we got guests over to our new home, what we had bought just 4 months ago. We gathered together, to put a dot for this old year and was ready to walk against new year.
Together we had a nice good dinner with turkey, potatoes, vegetables and gravy.

Just needs to be bit more in the own to get better taste:

Now it is ready to cut and to be eaten:

Someone just was so hungry that, she tried, does all this big turkey can fit into her mouth, but unfortunately this time the winner was turkey :) 

 

Dessert was needed as well for a nice evening. This time it was white and dark chocolate mousse.  Tasted sweet, but good :)

Since I am coming from Estonia and living here in Sweden, when we celebrated this year new year twice, because we had not only swedes in our small new years party. We had also other Estonians and we decided, that we need to celebrate new year twice.

For Estonia, this year change was bring along quite big changes. From 00:00 1st January 2011 has Estonia got new currency to use. Our official currency is now Euro.

For me, it is second time, when Estonia has currency exchange. After we got free under occupation, when instead Russian ruble we got our own nice and beautiful Estonian crown:

One way it feels actually sad, that Estonia went over to Euro, because Estonian crown had been became also quite strong currency and even thought they say, that Estonia will be more attractive now to foreign investors, we can say, that it has been already attractive to foreign investors. Even when came economical recession, we must admit, that Estonia was not hit so hard as some other countries, especially our southern neighbors. But now we have to wait and see, what will happen with this new time and new currency.

After Estonian New Year had been celebrated, we made us ready for to receive New Year here in Sweden. For me it has been now third time I received new year here with my dearest and with friends. Around 12 o'clock, we went outside to fire bit fireworks and drink champagne. And new year arrived :D

As for me, the new year will bring and give some new things. And as they usually say, in every new year people will give a new year promises to themselves. As for me, I usually don't do it, but I thought, why not to try and see, what will be come out of it :)

So, here is my new year promises:
- our company will grow bigger
- our home will look more as our home and has a nice garden
- I will be happier and less moodier (Hard to keep probably, but never don't know what might happen)

So, Happy new year to all of you :)
