Party Stuff...
Jan. 3rd, 2010 10:32 amOkay. Its on the 8th, starting at 5 PM or so. Menu IS meatballs, mashed potatoes and gravy, and the meatballs will be done in 30 minutes from right now, and frozen to be thawed and reheated on Friday. They're real good, I think. Hard to not keep nibbling...
Anyway, that's dealt with. The only 'hardcore' cooking that should be going on AT the party will be the mashed potatoes and any side dishes I come up with. I'm considering getting some Mrs. Smith apple pies to make just before we start, so they'll be cooled to an eat-able state by the time we want dessert.
The usual munchies (crackers, cheese, fresh veggies and such) will be available, and I plan to have a selection of pop and beer; just what is still uncertain. I'll hopefully be getting some help to obtain stuff, so we'll see.
That's the party update- See those of you coming then!
Oh- I made about 130 meatballs, roughly 16 to a pound or so. We should have enough. :)
Here's the recipe, before I forget- Note the modifications below, and that this is HALF what I made for the party.
