Decisions

Topic #1: Food for party on Saturday.

Do I...

A) Spend X amount of dollars at the grocery store and get a large volume of food, leaving me the responsibility of prep and cooking it? That. Is. A. Lot. Of. Work. I know from experience, dude. No, seriously, two years ago it took me all of Friday night and six hours on Saturday to cook for about 35 people. Lot. Of. Work.

Or do I...

B) Use my birthday gift from my parents to get a considerably smaller portion of food catered? I also must consider the fact that people will arrive at significantly different times, so I do want to have options to have relatively fresh items for everyone... meaning many catered hot items would not be ideal.

Topic #2: I now realize I did a horrible job in naming this post. The looming decision above (topic #1) has apparently tricked my mind into thinking I had more to think about. Well, I suppose if I did cook, I would have to pick a menu...

Okay, enough with the decisions crap. Weekend recap time.

Friday: Pretty much a boys night. Some food and drink at a local place and some late night poker. Good times.

Saturday: Pond hockey. Then... a movie that I feel I should be kicking myself for not seeing earlier... Forgetting Sarah Marshall. SO FUNNY. I think it's my favorite Judd Apatow movie. Seriously. I died.

Sunday: Played the game of cook-something-in-my-friend's-kitchen-using-only-ingredients-on-hand. The end product was an au gratin potato dish with bacon. Simple. Sinful. Good. That went along with some good playoff football. Hockey ended the weekend, and it got a lil' bit chippy... that's men's hockey. Only one fight, no police involvement, not too bad. Some great weekend stories over some apps and drink afterwards closed off a pretty low-key but fun weekend.

Today: H-cut and pond hockey. Pretty not bad for a Monday.

Rest of week: Make that decision. And prep. Prep for what should be another fun b-day...
