It's remarkable to think about the hope, the potential, and the joyful mystery of the new year. I'm certainly not delusional, but I've always somehow believed in the hope that springs new upon the eve of the new year. And, as I sit here contemplating what's to come -- I feel that hope.
Tomorrow we will wake up early. If we get up early enough, there will be coffee. And a bit of kranzkuchen. Steph will arrive and we'll drive off to gather our wares for another New Year's feast. This year, we're exploring Asian cuisine. We'll make up a bit of sushi, maybe some Chinese dumplings, a few eggrolls, some tempura, and whatever else we feel inspired to create. We'll cook all day, and nibble as we go. We'll laugh. Play games. Drink wine. And enjoy one another's company. At midnight, we'll crack open a bottle of champagne and toast the new year.
And when it's all over, we'll drift off to sleep with smiling faces and full bellies. And we'll wake up to a blank slate. A new calendar. And the hope that, somehow, an exciting stretch of days just waiting to be shaped into something new, lay before us.
Although it's virtually impossible to simply place all of our burdens down at 11:59 p.m. on the eve of the new year, and wake up to an utterly clean slate on the first of the year, it's certainly a contemplation worth having.
Our hopes and goals for 2010
Stress less, and pray more.
Open up, and reach out.
Stretch our boundaries.
Do more creating, and less tearing down.
Eat well, and share meals often.
Explore the boundaries of new cooking worlds.
Focus on the immense possibility of possibility.

As you reflect on 2009 and step over the threshold of the new year, may only good await. And may your 2010 hold nothing less than miracles.
