b'DaYS aRE FuN

so its a friends birthday. i just met him like a couple of times. nice chap. nice hair. [ ya this is for u H___ :P rem u promised to spring for lunch tomoro?? and this is me shamelessly pandering to u.. man the things i do for chocs or free lunches ]
btw happy b'day H___ !!
anyways.

now that our house was partially set up. and we had a home theatre system and one of the walls was painted a nice red. we decided the party would be in our house. ok so we have a pale version of a party you know.
no booze, the usual cake , chips, blah blah. it would have been the most sober b'day H____ would have in his life, perhaps...
just 15 ppl.
piece of cake ! [ pun intended ]

now. well we got the balloons and the party hats. and etc etc
my roomie told me its ridiculous to think of feeding 15 ppl. everyone is gonna have dinner and come at 11:30. so all we gotta do is give them soft drinks and chips.

cool. right?

not so.

9:30.
"hey no one has had dinner and they'r all planning to come here for dinner"
"ok lets not panic, how many ppl?"
"only us, the guys we meet everyday. nothing special. anything you make is fine."
"ok. get the veggies from wincos and i'll make something."

she goes.
she calls up.
"hey some more ppl will join"
"ok, just get more veggies"

10:45
i'm cooking for 15 people. i'm upto my elbows in peeled potatoes and carrots.
we don't have VESSELS to cook for 15 people.
so i'm cooking in 2 vessels simultaneously. the sink has stopped draining the water. and i'm wondering to myself.
HOW THE HECK DID I GET MYSELF INTO THIS???

mebe its the mirror thing :-| [ refer to prev posts. oh wow i totally feel like a big shot saying that !! ]

QoD

ps: food was a smashing success. we had pav bhaji :P
but since half the folks planned for a booze party after our teetotalers party, only half of what we made was done.

pav bhaji anyone??
