Work Holiday Party

This year, the company had a super low key Holiday Party. I've heard of their previous ones and they used to go all out and have it at a fancy smancy restaurant out in Laguna Beach. This year though, with all the cutbacks that were highly necessary, they decided to just have Maggiano's catered over at the office. Bummer, considering I had high expectations for a fancier Holiday party, but still, the food was pretty darn delicious.

Yummy piles of bread next to bottles of Sparkling Cider and even some Champagne, which I had a glass of! On my plate I got me a little bit of everything. Fettuccine Alfredo, Taylor Street Baked Ziti, Chicken Parmesan, Chicken Piccata and some Salad. I also got Cremé Brûlée for dessert. They also had Mini NY Cheesecakes, Apple Crostadas and little cookies.

I also found out who my Secret Santa was, it was the billing manager Corinna!

The only bummer is they didn't let us off early. After lunch and a video slide show for the company, it was time to finish up work. I sure hope next years party fares better than this.
