I am so impressed! Does it count if we cook the courses over a period of seven days? :)
Lol, sure! Why not! :)
Wow! Are you for hire? ;)
Melanie pointed me this way. Great new blog, and I love the name you chose!
Janna, welcome!
Thanks! I would love to cook for hire - can you come to Hawaii? :)
Wow! That is amazing. I rarely eat a two-course meal, let alone anything bigger than that!
Thanks Spy! Welcome!
I had to do really small portions so we could eat everything - but after all seven, we were totally stuffed!
This looks amazazzing.
Thanks Michelle! It was a lot of fun to do - especially now that we have a dishwasher to take care of all the of the plates!
