Friday evening - host dinner for an out-of-town friend (tuck and run, baby!) from college and her new beau (he's totally cute and has an accent - SCORE!)
Saturday morning - host potluck brunch for friends we met in our birthing class (we all live in the neighborhood and have kids of similar ages, plus they're just good people. They didn't even sue when our cat scratched their daughter's face while we were babysitting her.)
Sunday evening - host dinner for Darr's friend from work, his wife (who's awesome, I just met her at the company party), and their two kids
Along with the lime pie I made for tonight, I'll be trying a new 12-layer cake with a cocoa icing that is "just this side of syrup" - yum!
But seriously, is there anyone out there who isn't booking weeks/months in advance?

Usually I am the person booking out months in advance. The first week of January, I sent out an evite for the last week of February (a neighborhood thing). :(
I am trying to leave a little more time unscheduled now, so that we can be less... rushed. But it is hard. I am used to scheduling by "there is an open slot on the calendar so I can take that time." I am not used to scheduling by "hmm, looks crowded that week, let's look at the next week."
Your food always sounds great. Maybe we need a heathens dinner. :)
Seriously, you guys are the best hosts. As far as inviting people for dinner, we're much more "we don't have much going on tonight, let's see if so-and-so are free!" As much as I teased you about it, I wish I could think farther ahead for entertaining--then it might happen a little more often! How's June look for you guys? ;)
A heathens dinner is brilliant.
Rachele - A Heathens Dinner is an excellent idea! But how would we choose just one dish to prepare?!?
Amber - Methinks ye jest but just in case you're serious, we have the 5th, 6th, and 27th currently open. My nephew's birthday is that month and I won't know until much later what weekend day they plan on having the party so I've blocked out the two weekends that surround his birth date. And we are celebrating our fifth anniversary on the 25/26th.
If selecting just one dish to prepare is an issue then we can simply have more than one heathens dinner. heh :)
That's me. I'm a Resolver.
