The Dinner Party

Last night, we had new friends Sara and Guillaume over for dinner. (Thanks, Robert, for introducing us!) As if the day hadn't already been taxing enough - Maggie took the GRE and I drank a lot of coffee while waiting for her to finish - we decided to whip together a four-course meal. By "whip together" I mean we had three hours to buy a bunch of ingredients and make everything before our guests arrived. It was a little intense.

Our menu ended up being slightly eclectic but all delicious:

Entrée - tortilla chips and home-made guacamole



Plat - Tacos! Chicken, white beans, home-made salsa and grated cheese on whole-wheat home-made tortillas



Salade - basically the same thing you see here

Fromages - Sara and Guillaume contributed three excellent soft cheeses to our multinational, multicultural meal

Dessert - my great-grandmother's famous banana cake (some day I'll post the recipe)



So - when are you coming for dinner?
