After the tech sale, we had company coming. I knew that Todd was coming to see his daughter at Christmas at Concordia. He was going to stay the night, and we thought one of his other daughters was coming along, too. Of course, I panic-shopped for that. I am NOT good at providing food for company. My Dad offered me good advice – to have some frozen meals that we could just throw in – and I did that…… along with buying other stuff.
Then it turned out that John and Cheri would be in town, too, so we had them over along with Samith and Steph. Lloyd seemed to think that everyone would have eaten dinner before they came, but I went out after the tech sale and did a little more panic shopping. Oh, and when I ordered pizza for the tech sale kids, I ordered another one for home.
SO. When all these people were here, I set out lots of snack-type stuff: cheese, sausage, vegetables, crackers, apples, trail mix, had the pizza warming in the oven and was prepared to cook frozen stuff if needed……
….. and everyone had eaten. We had some drinks and nibbled a little.
Everyone was gone by either evening or mid-morning, and now I had a fridge full of weird foods (not a bad problem to have, I know).
Oh, I forgot to mention that we brought all the weird sodas home from the tech sale. I’m working on those, too.
