Good Times on the Fly

Saturday night ended up being a really good time... by accident. Well, it was supposed to be a good time, but just with a different set of people. Allow me to explain...

We were supposed to host some of Dave's family for dinner this past Saturday night. Dave's cousins and their baby have never been over to our house, so we figured we'd have a nice dinner with them and our uncle. The Boy exerted a great deal of effort to get the house in order and cook a fabulous meal. He was also suffering from the man flu, aka the sniffles (thanks for the term, kat), so he was kind of out of it. Unfortunately, I was at class Friday night until after 9, and doing wedding stuff on Saturday afternoon, and wasn't able to pitch in as much as I would have liked. Despite these obstacles, he cooked up a loverly meal and we even had time to relax and wait for his family to arrive at 5:30.

At 5:30, no one had arrived, which made us a little bit concerned. You have to understand that The Boy's family is obnoxiously punctual (even The Boy is known as the "time nazi" among our friends). At 5:40, we know something was up. The Boy checks the email invitation to his family and realizes he prepared the meal a little too early... by a week!! Once I compose myself after laughing, we had to figure out what to do with all of this food.

In a scramble, we ended up calling some friends, luring them over with the promise of a yummy homecooked meal. It turned into a much overdue night of good food, laughs, and fun. We should do that more often!
