Its my Party!
Had a fabulous "progressive" dinner with the boys this weekend. Appetizers at one couple's house, then main course in the courtyard of another couple's house, and the desserts at "the" single man's house. haha. i have to say i really do enjoy making food and dessert and entertaining but i really pulled out all the stops for this one... and i think i am good to not make another dessert for a while... haha. in total, plus active planning and organizing... it was about a 16 hour effort spread across three days... whewww. i use to want to have a boyfriend with power tools so he could help build my deck.... now i want a boyfriend who is a pastry chef.... still most likely gay... so shouldn't be too hard. anyways... the "menu" was such... and actually with people taking a serving home... i was cleaned out. thank god... i hate leftovers!
