Practically that was the feast - 9 course meal prepared by EdRin and some help from Ed's younger bro, Edric...
After the dinner then we had Kris Kringle (spelled right?!...hmmm...) It is a gift exchange game with a little of twist...basically the last person has the most advantage...and the first person is the most unluckiest person.
Overall it was a great nite just before Christmas =)
