Tonight was the winter party for the firm Mr. Stannix works for. These are always very formal and a lot of fun. I love dressing up and enjoying that "scene". Last year there was a seven course meal complete with all the funky cutlery and glasses on the table. This year, they rented out the art gallery and did more of a stand and mingle thing. There was food tables set up all around the gallery and little sitting areas for visiting. They had tall round tables with tea-lights lit in the middle to stand around and eat. It was a very enjoyable evening out for us. It was fun to walk the different lobbies of the art gallery and see the architecture. What a neat place! After speeches and a short video presentation our evening was finished off with a dance and gelato. They had three different kinds to try. Each kind was placed in a bowl, which was placed in another bowl full of ice to keep it from melting. The whole evening was very elegant and the food was delish. It was great to meet more people from the firm and get to know more about where Mr. Stannix works. At the end of the evening we got our coats and walked a few blocks in the gently falling snow to our car. We were holding hands until they got too cold, then we opted for sticking them in our own pockets.
