Since I have decided that I am far enough along in my life to start becoming proficient at cooking, I thought a little dinner party might be a good idea. I just started cooking over the past couple of years and have found it to be rather enjoyable, but sometimes a bit daunting. The only disaster this time was that my oven decided to die when the food was only half way cooked. (Thanks neighbor who let me intrude this afternoon and use your kitchen!) I had scoured Pinterest all day for the most awesome of recipes while becoming really really hungry from all of the incredible edibles it had. I decided upon a classic all-American meal:
+ Baked Chicken,
+ Brussle Sprouts w/ Bacon,
+ Baked Macaroni & Cheese,
+ Rootbeers (in glass bottles of course),
+ Watermelon Slices
+ Coconut Milk Chocolate Filled Strawberries
This meal was reminiscent of the 4th of July neighborhood bbq on The Sandlot. I imagine this is about the same meal that they were eating. Oh, but if only my yard was large enough to accommodate a baseball diamond... and giant kid eating dog. Someday perhaps. Maybe we can just get James Earl Jones? (note to self...get a Star's Homes Map next time I'm up on Sunset Blvd.)
Mmm, warm fuzzies.
