Oh yes, and I'm usually so hot that by the time I can join in at the table I am literally dripping, with a face the colour of a baboons butt
Yeah, I HAD BEEN just going and buying a rotisserie chicken or something, and buying a bottle of wine, and taking that. But I went with making a BIG spinach salad, which actually went over quite well...-
Bag of fresh spinach, mandarin oranges, almond slivers, green onions, red onions(mostly for color), grated(f*ck, I can never remember the brand name) swiss, crumbled feta cheese, balsamic vinegar dressing, and raspberry balsamic vinegar dressing. It was a big hit.

Oh, hosting is the worst! And I got that about 3 times tonight. "David, you have such a great house....you should host big get togethers for all of us!". "Ummmm, I don't have enough parking?!?!"

I host my family, for all of our May-Sept holidaze, so I know all about baboons butt!!!! Although I don't sweat it really, anymore. About 3-4 glasses of wine/beer, and they just don't seem as important, as they once did. "You know where the fridge is.....get it yourself!"
