Let them eat!!!
Finally it was time to eat dinner! There was laughing, dancing, queueing, and I’m pretty sure someone cried.
Feeding and sitting fourty+ people is no easy matter. It took a good half hour for everyone to get situated. For dinner we had the two lechones, two types of frijoles, yuca, and so much rice… Dessert was a yummy mix of coconut brittle, Christmas tree cake, rum cake, flan, and bunuelos (MMMMM!!!!). By the time 10PM rolled around, we were all ready to collapse into a food coma.
Dinner was followed by a rousing game of White Elephant.
Then we had a surprise visit from Santa.
The evening was a great success and everyone made it safely home by midnight, giving Santa plenty of time to get back to business and deliver all his presents.
