Tomorrow night heralds the return of the community dinner. Any guesses to the menu? While my theme was “Go Team USA!” in Olympic Summer Game spirit, I am not fond of fried chicken and apple pie. Okay, maybe apple pie, but most “American” food isn’t my thing. Mexican food, on the other hand, makes me smile from one ear to the other.
There are 16 so far who may be attending; groceries this time around cost a bit more thanks to a lengthy menu, increased prices and more friends attending; however, cooking at home is still the best deal in town. I am guessing I’ll be able to feed at least 20 people a hearty dinner (including leftovers) for $80. Not too shabby. Feel free to cross your fingers for me that this all comes out as planned.
Oh, and did I mention I own 6 chairs. Ha! A little musical silla never hurt anyone.
