Entertainment Debut

MM and I are getting ready to host a dinner party at our house tomorrow night.  I am super excited, but nervous as well.  I have never had to plan out a dinner so that everything came to the table at the same time and at the time it was called for.  Everyone will be waiting around anxiously for the food to hit the table.  But my excitement of the outcome is out-weighing my nervousness.

I am going to make the pot roast that I made a couple months ago for MM and the kids.  They devoured it.  It was amazingly good.  The epitome of comfort food.  The pot roast cooked for almost four hours.  The house smelled of heavenly aromas.  I served it with creamy dreamy mashed potatoes.

The suggestion was made that I make the same meal for others.  "Others" turned into an additional six guests.  I couldn't help myself.  I wanted to invite everyone.  I couldn't wait to share this comfort, my new family, my new home, my experience, laughter, hugs and stories.  This will be the first meeting of MM's parents and mine.  Finally three of my four cornerstones will be in the same place at the same time.  Maybe they will understand what each does for me individually, and what they collectively do for me.  MM and Drmr have met.  Running Girl and MM have met, but Drmr and Running Girl have never met.  They all know each other through me.  I can't wait to watch the three of them together.  The more the merrier.

Tomorrow while I cook, guests will come over to watch the Broncos game before dinner.  Guests will scream and yell at the television while they are enticed by the smell of the pot roast cooking.  I can't wait to feel the energy in the house.
