Dinner parties (for certain values of dinner party) successfully hosted: one.

Lamb kleftiko, fried sweet potatoes, honey chicken drumsticks, and cucumber, with stewed peaches (and stewed apple and blueberry with cinnamon) and custard and homemade caramel for after. I don't think I poisoned my guests. Well, I hope not, anyway.

We watched two-thirds of the BBC's (quite good, actually) Ivanhoe, which has Ciaran Hinds as Brian de Bois-Gilbert and Christopher Lee (worth the price of entry alone) as Grand Master of the Order of Knights Templar. Hack! Slash! Smash! But the series is all of six hours long, which is a bit much for one sitting.

(I'm still surprised that I can cook. And like cooking for other people.)

I shouldn't be hungry again. But it seems that I am.

Mmmmm. You may invite me for dinner at any time.

Consider yourself in possession of a standing invitation. Should you ever be this side of the pond and in need of feeding. :)

And if you ever need to come to Missouri...I'll take you home to Texas. :-)
