Dinner Party
I'm psyched as right now. I'm having my first ever dinner party tomorrow night (and no, that's not an invitation: it's for my cousins), and I'm trying to figure out what needs doing. Dad's given me some money for dinner ingredients, and yes, I'm cooking. I'm so excited!
I know I'm making a long-cook chicken curry for main course, but I've just decided in the past hour or so that that by itself isn't enough. I knew that already, but I hadn't put any thought into what else I'd make, so I've just looked to see what's in the curry (chicken, potato, onions not any more! jk), and now I've got to find something not too complicated to make that has other vegetables. I've got my "Totally Simple Food" cookbook, and I'm trying to find a pretty picture that attracts my attention. I've also decided that instead of buying a random frozen dessert I want to make one. That'll depend on what there is here, though, I suppose.
~_~ Okay, so I just went through the "Salads & Vegetables" section, and there's nothing that doesn't have potatoes or alcohol that looks doable right now. I'd make one of the ones with alcohol in it, but the only drivers out of my cousins are on their Ls or Ps, so there's a zero alochol tolerance there. I can probably just toss together some sort of salad, or have plan vegies. Now I want to see what desserts I could make . . .
