Today I took most the day off to get the house ready for having a friend over for dinner. I invited my friend S over for dinner a few weeks back. She came tonight.
I make Butternut squash, kale, quinoa stew. We had it with bread and salad. It was good. I am not sure if she was just off the food or off carbs or not hungry. She didn't eat as much as I thought she would. She said she liked it but was tired and her doctor had her not eating carbs because of getting pregnant. I also made homemade peppermint patties. She said she would try 1/2 of one but ended up eating 2 they were so good.
I like having friends over to eat. I did find out that my china did not have matching bowls. I found that interesting since I thought I had the whole set. I got it for my wedding a million years ago. After the dinner I got on the internet and found eight brand new bowls still in the original boxes for purchase. I bought them immediately. Now I have matching bowls. They were not crazy expensive either! I found one place that was selling used (but in great condition) bowls for triple the price.
I also used my soup tureen for the first time. Anyway, I am ready for the next time I have folks over for soup or stew.
Until tomorrow...
