Happy New Year! 

What are you doing today (on New Year's Eve)? We're going to set off fireworks around eleven and go till twelve. There are strict noise rules in Germany, that means strict times when you should set off fireworks on New Year's Eve. :)

Has anyone eaten fish from a can? How does it taste?

We're going to have a nice dinner and stay up until midnight!!!! 

I've eaten a type of small fish from a can, and it tastes good enough.

You didn't eat sardines, did you? 

We stayed up past twelve. The fireworks went off until one. We did some of our own and it was really fun (though we accidently set one wrong side up and it blue up in our hedge, then in our neighbors' hedge and so on. :)
