New Year's Eve goodies

I've been baking/deepfrying the traditional Dutch New Year's Eve goodies again, oliebollen (deep-fried dough balls with raisins and apple) and apple beignets (slices of apple with cinnamon sugar in beer dough) this afternoon. Only three hours and that extra second left of 2016 over here !
Wishing all my Blip friends and their families a Happy and above all Healthy New Year, here's hoping it will be better for all of us ! My New Year's card for you all with some bokeh shape lights play is in the extra :-)

I've also reviewed all the 51 entries for this past week's last Abstract Thursday of the year, thank you so much to all who entered during these very busy days, you can find the whole collection here

My choices for this week are

greg lovett  for seeing the possibilities of a mirrored abstract
MerrilHope  for a beautiful weeping window
Missycat3   for the magic of a web with raindrops
youoregon1  for misty mysteriousness  and
lisabet     for seeing and capturing the abstract in light and shadow

A great big thanks to Robert/youoregon1 for starting this great challenge ! See you all on the first Thursday in the new year, theme-free, so do as you like, be as creative as you feel :-) The tag will be AT80!

Thanks to all who continue to visit my journal, even when I'm such a bad commenter ! Time to have some of those goodies now !
