Pity Dinner Components


No PD this week. Dory had an operation on her bum fin - get well soon! – so, we gave her the week off. I think we will pressure her to return next week, as crutches are no excuse for laziness.

Bubbles and I pick the menu and Dory is head chef. Every meal has a protein and starch. We generally have salad, but sometimes we add a hot veg, depends on the mood.

Frizz and C-pap supply all salad and Frizz is the salad chef. It is perfect job for her as she cuts the vegetables into beautifully equal pieces and always gets the best fresh stuff. We make sure to have an assortment of dressings ("Holy Dressings!") and toppings. One new favorite they found is a yummy Caesar and we also love Paul Newman's.

We set up the salad buffet and everyone gets to build their own perfect bowl. Some skip the olives, others skip the blue cheese... we allow for lots of independent expression - since the main course is decided  without an opinion survey!

Pity Dinner Trivia

Today we are traveling "up'ta" camp! Squirt's family generously allows us to visit their beautiful home near Sugarloaf. We will eat, drink, take walks, read and play some Wii. Such fun. Since we will be eating some fast food en route, there will be little worthy of description. Instead some PD basics... We live in an old house. The kitchen cabinet for dinner plates is on an exterior wall. This cabinet gets pretty chilly in winter, so we warm the plates on the radiator. Regular rotating to get them all consistently toasty helps ensure our delicious food does not get cold from immediate contact with freezing stoneware.
