A Bit Tired Today!

[Caran]

Had four friends round for dinner last night. First time for a long time. I'd forgotten about all the organisation that goes into it. Took me two days of sorting it. But it was worth it. Everyone enjoyed themselves. We all ate and drank too much. And we put the world to rights!
Took it very easy today and dined on left overs.

It's always good when a dinner party goes really well, Caran ;-)

I'm sorry - it took you 2 days to feed an extra 4 people? Were you doing a 13 course taster menu or something?

[Caran]

I wasn't cooking for two whole days, there is cleaning and shopping to go into the mix too.

Caran I know how you feel, after a weekend of celebrating Mr Bs 80th Birthday , we’ve had a lovely few nights to relax

[Caran]

Very near the mark Chris!

Socialising is bloody exhausting in itself. But fun.

Absolutely Zac and it’s better than been a total misery :0)

Caran, I know what you mean, It’s worth making an effort. Glad it did well

I also know just what you mean, Caran. When you've always had friends in for a meal most weeks or you've invited those who drop in to say hello to stay for dinner you can do it almost without thinking.

I'm finding, after sixteen months of not socialising with anyone, that I'm no longer on automatic...I'm having to think! And thinking's a bit hard too these days.....my brain's got lazy.... ;-)

We'll get back into the swing before long.

Hi gness, good to hear from you. I know what you mean.
I couldn't have coped without lists. What had to be done on Monday and what had to be done yesterday. But all worked out ok.

and we had leftovers for dinner tonight!
