Hello all! Well, the good news is I feel about 60% better (this morning it was 80% better, but then I went to the Worthington Market (where I heard a market vendor vocally criticize her political decisions based up the button she was wearing. She showed how nice she was by still making her purchase), Clintonville market (where nothing bad happened, but I think I might have scored the Petit Boulangerie to do the bread for my next dinner and talk about being an artisan using local products) Costco (where I witnessed a huge fight in the parking lot and a crazy womal yelled at me to stop looking at her when I turned around to see what all the raucous was), the North Market, Weiland's, the Container Store, Trader Joe's, G. Michael's, took Husband to work, Thurns (I was too late! They were closed! tragic!), then Target and World market where I finally found the centerpieces I needed, which I would have though were the simplest thing on earth), then back home to unload everything and back to fetch Husband (complete with wine and linens!) from work, it's back down a little bit).
All of that to say, dinner is ON!!
But, I am so sad that Thurn's was closed, because I really wanted one of the nibblies on the tables to be their country liver pate. It is amazing. So, I've given it a plug, now go buy some.
Please, please forgive me for not being environmentally friendly but I am going to be using plastic plates tomorrow. One of my helpers is sick and I'd like to not have to stay and do dishes all night. I promise to recycle them. So, we'll be having plastic plates with real flatware and tablecloths! DIY restaurant fun!
Okay! I think that's about it. I'm really excited for the dinner tomorrow and I hope you are, too!
Again, thanks for all of your well-wishes. Now, let's all go and get flu shots!!
PS - I am full for my burger hunt, but response was so great I'm definitely going to do it again. I will be sending an email to everyone very soon!!
