Yesterday saw us host our first social gathering as we had a barbeque for 14 big people, 6 little people and a handful of babies (but they didn't eat much) and I'm glad to say it went relatively smoothly and all appeared to have a good time.
Andy, the aspiring chef, insisted on making a multitude of marinades and salsas from scratch and the preparation, not to mention the shopping, took hours but it was definately worth it as the food was delicious.
We were very lucky with the weather as it was a sunny end to a miserable week of weather. I'm sure everyone saw the horrendous floods in Queensland and although we had nowhere near as much rain, it still chucked it down solidly until Friday afternoon. It was also unbearably humid which I have never really experienced before and don't wish to again. I had a headache nearly everday and by Friday the washing I'd done on Monday was still damp and needed washing again!
