sureiOkay, 4:00 is the cutoff point for RSVPs (which are now nonexistent, that's okay) because that's when I'm getting food.
At this point, I need to announce that I seem to be making dinner on Friday too. I don't know what yet, but I'll probably decide while I'm up north at the grocer's. (oo, old fashioned name (or British)) I think it depends on what kinds of meat look good behind the counter, and what price they are. Also what's available. There's no grill, so I'd hesitate to do steak, except as a slow-cook thing. Or ham at all. Which kinda cuts things down, wouldn't you say?
... Hm. What about... slow-cook beef in... its own juices, with onions and tomatoes, and mustard for seasoning? Or if that's a little too experimental for your tastes, I can do pepper, rosemary, and marjoram instead. Maybe toss something green in at the end - for some reason I'm thinking of asparagus. I'd have to steam that first, probably, and leave it in the microwave to stay hot, before adding it at the last minute. Ooo, I like that idea! I think I'll try it.
So yeah, people who are staying here are welcome to join me on Friday too. I'm expecting (hoping for) Carrot and Beth, we'll see on others.
