So the dinner party was a success, more or less. A couple of things that could have been better...
Because of the stagnant water that my broken dishwasher had brewed, my house was infested with gnats, and you know how they love the smell of wine, so they kept flocking to our wine glasses as we talked. Very embarassing.
I only ordered one entree of each Italian meal, I didn't want to order a whole bunch of food especially Italian that is so fattening and not have people eat it at that time of the night, but they did, so much that the food seemed like it was too little. Maybe next time I will do Thai food, it's cheap and it goes right through you. I didn't heat up the plates, and I didn't have a set of glases enough for a set of five. I always used to buy sets of four, and one of each set has ended up broken what with all the moving, so I had about 3 glasses of each, so everyone sort of drank in different glasses. Weird!
And lastly, when I washed the glasses and the dishes, I didn't wipe them, so they still had spots in them. I noticed the spots when I went to pour the wine for my guests. Embarassing, aye!
For a first try out it wasn't so bad. I hope everyone had fun. You know with women, they tell you they had fun but in the end they probably didn't.
I'm exhausted. For some strange reason, the dishwasher cleaned out okay last night when i put our dishes in, and this time it's the garbage disposal that's broken. Talk about role reversal.
