Christmas Party Plotting
Dec. 14th, 2010 02:30 amKaty is having a Christmas party Saturday and was thinking of serving /Chicken Nuggets/. From /Bird's Eye/. From the /oven./
I had assumed this was Her Deal and that I was not at all involved with the prep, but a conversation over the weekend revealed I that was allowed/encouraged to help cook (though she suggested managing it all at my place in Vaxuhall and bringing it over, which given the poverty of that equipment, the lack of any space, and the transportation, is such a logistical nightmare I think I threw up a little bit in my miiiiiind. Cooking anything more complex than 'lazy dinner for one' there is like skinning a weasel--overly complicated and really pointless). I did a sort of Seasick Morgana Face and started plotting how to get Not Chicken Nuggets done in a quick, unobtrusive way that would not ruin Katy's flatmate's life or cause me to pull out all my Naturally Curly Hair (which I am v. anxious that viewers of the Christmas Pagent should see, though I am only playing Innkeeper's Wife... anyone for Charlie Brown Christmas Special? Anyone? Bueller?). This is my provisional list (though due to a Christmas Gift Idea Katy and I had today, two more Mystery Items must also get cooked in the interim).
Must get a menu properly together ASAP. It seems unthinkable that I let time get away from me to this extent. I only /today/ bought my family's Christmas presents.
( Christmas Party! )
