I live in a house of cooks- everyone in my building is intensely into the preparing and eating of food. It was natural that the idea of a progressive dinner party would come up sooner or later, and soon after we moved in it did. We finally set a date (next Friday November 4) and last night we met to plan the dinner.
I live in the arts district and the first Friday of every month is the First Friday Artwalk. It's hugely popular and since this will likely be the last warm-ish First Friday until springtime, and so many people will be out in the neighborhood anyway, we'll also be inviting our friends to join us for dessert- which one neighbor who loves to bake graciously agreed to host.
The rest of us drew to see who would handle each course:
I have the first course!
Then we made a schedule for the evening:
I'm so excited for next Friday! I know for sure I'll be making my very favorite bar snack in all the world- deep fried olives from the Red Cat in New York. I've requested the Red Cat Cookbook from the library and hopefully I'll get it before Friday. If not, the recipe I've linked to above looks pretty close.
