We're having a dinner party on Saturday night...poor Julie has been hearing about it forever...8 adults, 8 kids, and 2 sixth-grade babysitters. The menu has been planned for ages. Table setting is tonight, maybe, grocery shopping in the morning, and cooking begins tomorrow.
FIRST COURSE
antipasto, to be served in the living room, with champagne:
roasted cauliflower
roasted mushrooms
bruschetta topping with crostini (bought)
some kind of cheese
prosciutto
asparagus vinaigrette
cannellini with shrimp, garlic, lemon and rosemary
ENTREE
into the living room we go, accompanied by a couple of bottles of cabernet...
mixed green with pine nuts, raisins, croutons, and sherry vinaigrette
lasagna
DESSERT
back to the living room? who knows? but I do have some terrific ice wine to go with the plater of cookies...
lemon squares
brownies
shortbread circles with chips and nuts
peanut butter cookies
The kids are getting pizza, delivered. Have I forgotten anything???
Look for the debriefing on Sunday!
