We have friends in town.  It’s 6pm…  We’ve been eating since yesterday…  There’s still more to come!

It started with New England Clam Chowder yesterday.  I was so excited to have them here I forgot to put the potatoes in the chowder.  So much for pretending I know what I’m doing!

And I forgot the cukes for the salad…

Breakfast this morning was our spin on Eggs Benedict – poached eggs on whole wheat English muffins, with andouille sausage and langostino, topped with a jalapeno hollandaise sauce…

We skipped lunch so we could start dinner at 3pm. We invited Victor’s mom over to meet the girls and have dinner with us; Brasiole, Italian sausage, meatballs, pork, rigatoni and sauce, salad, tomato basil bread… and later tonight a puff pastry and apple dessert…
