In addition, here is a brief list of New to Me things from December that may or may not become new traditions:
1. Eating greasy Chinese food from David Fong's. Hopefully leaving my cell phone there will not be a tradition.
2. Schmoozing with teachers at Blake's Holiday Party at MIA. My guess is that even Blake will not be able to afford the extravagance of another party like this.
3. Learning about comic art at The Minnesota Museum of American Art. Unfortunately, this museum is closing (probably did not help that this is the first time I've ever been there) so will not become a tradition.
4. Eating excellent Nepali food at Everest on Grand. Put this on my list of reasons to drive to St. Paul! Definitely a new tradition.
5. Eating decent Indonesian food at BALi. TAB loves this place so I'm sure I'll be back. The location, atmosphere, prices, and spices are great.
6. Bill and I were glad that we braved the coldest night of the year to listen to the Lyra Baroque Orchestra's Holidays with the Sopranos concert. Very beautiful music in a perfect venue. Would like to check them out again.
7. Making veggie stock, lentil soup, and apple dumplings on the winter solstice. Hopefully a new tradition.
8. Christmas shopping without going to the mall: online and local stores only this year. Definitely a new tradition.
Happy NEW YEAR, everyone!

I love going to St Paul. I resolve to take you to my favorite St Paul places in 2009.
