Ladies Are Coming for Supper

I have severely neglected this subject and have not kept up with posts, so it is amazing to me that I continue to get a few readers. I do love food and new ways and insights into using and enjoying it.  In less than two weeks I will be hosting a dinner for about 30 people, or maybe less, with my daughter. We intended to have a light supper, but the closer we get the more complex and demanding the preparation appears. 


We wanted light and easy, you know, the way it looks in the magazines and on TV. Roma Tomatoes stuffed with Chicken Salad, Roast Beef and Cream Cheese on Pumpernickel sandwich bread, Egg Salad on dainty white bread, Fruit on a Carved Watermelon, and for dessert, Chocolate Mousse with  Lace Cookies.  Sounds lovely!  But when you look closely, there's some work going on in there.  We're going to hit a few bakeries and delis today to see if they can help us. The real good part of such a meal is the friendship and love we'll share.

What kind of food do you eat most often?
