New Years Eve

The end of 2015 is upon us. Was it a good year for you? Will you make resolutions for the new year? Will you at least stay up to watch the ball drop? This year, at least, all those revelers in Times Square won't be freezing their butts off! When I was younger, I always wanted to be in Times Square for New Years eve, just once. I got over it. Now, I see all those people and I think, what a nightmare!! Then I heard these interesting tidbits this morning;

These restaurants are all in Times Square.
1. Despite the fact there is no view of the ball drop at midnight, Ruby Tuesday is charging $1699.00 for a VIP table.
2. Planet Hollywood - $1599 for the Three's A Crowd VIP Table for Three. It includes one bottle of vodka, one bottle of sparkling wine.
3. Buca di Beppo - The Couple's VIP Package will set revelers back $1000. And there's no view of the ball!!
4. Bubba Gump Shrimp is charging $799 PER PERSON for dinner.
6. Olive Garden has the best deal. $400 per person for a 5 hour open bar and buffet meal.
Yeah, not rushing to New York for that honor! Whoa!! All of that AND 1 MILLION people!

We're going to settle for an early dinner out and maybe a movie at home. I know how boring that sounds but I'm totally OK with that!

How about New's Year day? Will you be hungover? Will you spend the day watching college football? Will you go to or watch the Rose Parade? I like to tune in to the parade for a little while. Now that I've actually had the pleasure of helping decorate a float, it's fun to see them, knowing the work that goes into it.
