this is a special note because last night we were cooked for! another couple who enjoys cooking invited us over for dinner. and dinner it was! i have never seen so many complicated appliances and so many different pans and bowls and utensils in one of my friends' kitchens! it was very extravagant. we started off with these delish shrimp with garlic and parsley and we had a fantastic salad with feta and chetons (a new name for the fancy toasted bread that's often, when of a lesser quality, know as croutons), toasted toasted garlic bread and homemade pasta! like, they actually MADE the pasta dough! i think it was fettuccini and it was perfectly dressed with herbs including parsley, basil and marjoram with olive oil and parmesan cheese. it was a phenomenal meal that was even tastier with friends.
and now the big topic this opened up: should we get a stand mixer? this couple uses theirs a ton. and so does another couple we know. but will we? i can't imagine we would but it looks so cool and useful! any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. and i think the recipes for this dinner came from the joy of cooking but maybe i can get last night's cooks to at least post the titles of the recipes under the comments. next it'll be our turn to cook for them. any recommendations for a spring dinner for four? i'm asking here. post me some recipes! and keep eating...
