It's been years since I've had a dinner party. I'm nervous, but everything seems to be happening smoothly so far (I'm getting an early start). Here's my dessert recipe from my last dinner party:
1) Take homemade cheesecake out of oven
2) If you have no oven mitts, use kitchen towels
3) Think how incredibly hot cheesecake is
4) Notice that kitchen towels are on fire
5) Dump cheesecake in the sink
6) Call best friend to pick up cheesecake on the way over
So, you can see why I'm a bit nervous!
On top of that, I've never been very good at cooking meat. I have set my oven on fire (not once, but twice) trying to cook chicken drumsticks. Most recently, I set our BBQ on fire. So, my biggest worry is the meat.
On the menu this evening:
Appetizers:
Shrimp with Spicy Chipotle Roasted Red Pepper Cocktail Sauce & Lemon Tarragon Sauce
French Stick with Lemon Oregano Oil and Tapenade (these are the only store bought items)
Dinner:
Citrus Roasted Pork
Brown Rice
Asparagus and Baby Carrots in Butter
Dessert:
Chocolate Mousse with berries
Wish me luck!
