Had a few families over today. The main theme was "stuffed" --- twice-baked potatoes, stuffed mushrooms (from The Vegetarian Epicure), deviled eggs --- along with crudite, french onion soup (from The Kosher Palette), mini pizza slices for the kids, and for dessert I made Molten Chocolate Babycakes (from The New York Times). By the end, "stuffed" described us as well as the food.
It's been far too long since I've fully participated in planning our entertaining --- inviting the guests, planning the menu, doing a significant amount of the cooking. There are few things as gratifying as preparing a meal from scratch for friends.
