Yes, bachche. You read that right. Aunty Eve is in party mode! And why not? It is New Year’s Eve after all, and the worst year in a hundred years is ending. Now, I’m very classy, so my NYE celebration also has to match my image. I am quite popular around here, you know that. So, to make sure I have the best December 31 ever (with the best pictures, obvio), I asked you all, my darlings, to send me some suggestions. And so many I got! You care so much about your Aunty Eve that it made me cry a little and ruin my mascara. But it was worth it!

Anyway, from all the amazing suggestions, here are a few that I picked out. See. You might get some ideas too.

Sakshii: Order pizza, call besties, put PJs, face mask and funny movie

Aunty Eve: I already have great skin under this charcoal mask so I don’t think I need that part. But this sounds like a great plan, beta. What a fun kitty party for moi and mon amis! Yes, move on from “besties” please. Very 2020.

I like PJs. Let me take out my Louis Vuitton ones.

Funny movies…hmmm. I think I have my wedding video somewhere. Uff, the scandal your uncle’s bua created after she got drunk!

Also, you must learn some French now, bachche. It makes you sound rich. And that’s the kind of positive vibe we need going into 2023 won…oops…2024. Hehe.

Joanita: Quietly with a book and a drink

Aunty Eve: Hmmm. This plan is not my style, bachche. I’m more of a party starter, you know. But I will suggest it to my MIL hehe. She could do with all three things—a book (on how to be a good person because ugh), a drink (strong, very strong), and she needs to stay quiet.

Meghana: With a glass of wine, chilling in the bathtub

Aunty Eve: Wine, yes. Chilling, most definitely. Bathtub, hmmm. I do have a jacuzzi in my massive backyard. But what if the hot water ruins my perfect skin and washes off my makeup? All this beauty takes work, you know. Only a few hours, but still. And all those kuttis (my gal pals) will make it the gossip of 2024 if they see my eyelashes come off. I have an image to maintain. Okay, bathtub is out. Wine is in. Thank you mwah mwah.

Rupashi: Helping stray animals, helping the poor

Aunty Eve: Oh dear, you got serious, bachche. But it’s a good thought so I figured I will include this as well. We should all learn from this, and after such a difficult year, we should make a vow to ourselves to help those in need. I will do what I can…January 2 onwards. Because…

Yes, your dear Aunty Eve is not a saint. Don’t talk too much. Shaadi karwa dungi.
