Flare + Fog + Loving Sherrine's Party (lol) + oh so much to do

Sorry that I haven't been too much in posts lately. Know I am here though, just real busy. To make the long story short: I did the 2 funerals Thursday (Married couple I know passed away 11 days apart), Special Needs kids throwing a massive fit, in a flare and hurts to even walk, doing chemotherapy again, back from vacation, planning one massive real life BBQ (I'm planning now cuz we're expecting 400-600 people), real thankful for my dad's place with acre upon acre cuz we won't be able to do a BBQ without him LOL, and hey throw a fog in it and meet my current life... while taking my trying to be daily walk, one of my new friends (I inherited 2 cop friends LOL) stopped me.. its always me I swear LOL.. I got profiled for well taking a walk at 3am and having the hood on my jacket on me. He only saw me from the backside LOL. I have to admit, it was hysterical seeing a cop jump in being startled, when he realized who I was and not the person who did graphic arts shall we say on walls LOL. If that isn't enough, my mind temporary wondered off as it took me an entire 10 minutes to figure out why the posts didn't look right for fibromites - I was in the Alz Section LOL I lost my cell phone again, and thanks to mom's help I located it (I don't have long distance on home phone so I had to call mom to call my cell phone LOL). Turns out well good grief, it at least beat being in the fridge.. it was well exactly where I thought on my night stand and I swear I didn't see it. On the bright side, I got a swimming pool pass for the local pool, and they have a light exercise class I'm gonna do. And you are right, I didn't sleep last night besides 2 hours before everything started sigh... just another day in chaos life

We've missed you while you were away.
400-600 people? At a BBQ? How many cows and chickens are you using or is a burger and hot dog deal? Sounds like a whole farm!

Okay super woman, take a break and breath some okay?

That is the key...get a good 5 subject notebook, doesn't have to be a big one..
I seperate by salads/meats/drinks/desserts/snacks. That way you can keep easy track.

a roaster is the easiest thing with a good pulled pork, it is CHEAP and feeds a LOT of people. I buy them at BJ's, it is a pork loin that is about $17 for 8-10 lbs of meat. I put it on 250 and let it cook overnight, then in the morning, drain any juices (save for soup base later), and then pull it apart with a fork, add bbq sauce and good meal...I can usually get 3-4 loins in the roaster, and that will feed a good 250 people..

Potatoe salad..again, I use my roaster (the electric ones), cut up potatoes night before and cook them in that..then put in a CLEAN garbage bag and stick in the fridge, then in the morning I add all my stuff and just mix it in the bag! Saves all that trying to find a big enough bowl to mix stuff..and it is easier to stuff food in the fridge!
deviled eggs, they peel better if they are older eggs..like buy them a week or 2 before party..then them the day before.I have found I got the BEST reception on eggs when I put just a tablespoon of chipotle mayonaise in the mix with the regular mayo, and some honey mustard..AWESOME!
