So, Christmas is over, and if you’re anything like me, you can’t look at another cookie or holiday baked good (until next year). Good thing New Year’s Eve is our next big holiday, with more holiday festivities to celebrate. Oh, the holidays!

If you haven’t decided on your NYE plans yet, here’s one idea for you:
A New Year’s Eve party in Columbia Firehouse in Alexandria has lots of goods to share, from holiday punch to a pulled pork BBQ bar. Other eats being passed around will include crispy oyster sliders, shrimp and grits with tasso ham, and plenty of sweets, if you didn’t have enough this past weekend.
The party starts at 9:30 p.m. in the historic Chop Room with a DJ for dancing and a bubbly countdown to ring in 2012 at midnight.
Tickets are $60 per person and include food, holiday punch and champagne. Purchase tickets here before they’re all sold out!
Also check out the food guides for New Year’s Eve.
