Feeding guests

Back when you're a couple, the cook can excuse themselves to head off to the kitchen while their other half keeps drinks coming and chat going. Being chief cook, drinks dispenser, host, and bottle washer is different.

How do you do it? invite the guests into the kitchen to watch you? Give them tasks to do? Hope they'll take over?

Raclette is fab!

First comment of a (farming) friend of mine - I think we're getting food poisoning. rolling on the floor laughing

You have a whole lot of chopping and filling bowls to do, buy lots of raclette cheese, but it's a yummy and relaxing way to have an evening with food (hope no one is completely starving, the pans are quite small).
There's something about wine with friends, it does reduce itself at an alarming rate. wow

I tried cooking with wine tonight. It didn't go so well.

After 5 glasses I forgot why I was in the kitchen. moping
And now I know how to roast a chicken.

Not a bad evening in all. yawn sleep
Go to bed, missus!
If I can be of any assistance, please let me know, Biff. rollers
Rock, there you go, skin those then slice and dice if you would while I get the butter melting.

Interesting to find a cook with such a limited area of expertise, though. confused
