okay what do you like to cook
i like well i like to cook foods i like to eat i like to eat Italian food best and i find that i that's pretty easy to cook because a lot of it's one dish meals type things and they're kind of convenient
uh-huh
um-hum
that'd be good for a dinner party that you know to cook that because you don't have to deal with eight different things coming out at once is that what you usually cook when you have a party
right
um i usually have parties that are smaller groups i don't have i've never had a real big dinner party except at traditional holidays like Thanksgiving and such
uh-huh
and so um yeah uh yeah i guess i usually do i like to cook um heavy sauces and um
really
that sounds good
noodles and pasta and such
ooh fattening
yeah actually how about you what do you like to to cook
um we it's funny that um we're talking about this we just had a dinner party and we had um our senior pastor and his wife came over
um-hum
and i catered to their diet is the only thing though so it wasn't something i really wanted to make i really wanted to make red beans and rice and with Anduille
oh yeah
you you know sausage because i'm from New Orleans originally and um i was gonna make that red beans and rice with the those Cajun sausage and French bread with garlic butter and stuff
um-hum
and um a salad and then for desert i wanted i would i really wanted to make um
just brownies or French doughnuts would have been good but it's real hard to make them they don't really come out like they do in New Orleans up here i don't know why
oh
i don't know if it's me or the water or the recipe i have but
humidity or something
um that's what i want that's what i like to make is just real neat stuff like that but
um-hum
kind of like the Italians it's really good but instead i catered to their diet so i made baked chicken in the crock pot and
um it was good and everything it had all the vegetables in it but it seemed kind of boring compared
uh-huh
it kind of kind of down played compared to what you'd like huh do you find yourself um
right
with all the um cholesterol and and high fiber changing the way that you that you entertain
i find it changing the way that i eat but not the way i entertain
because i guess i guess i feel like um if they're on a diet like that i'm gonna you know honor that
but if it's just another couple came over um couple weeks later and i made what did i make that night i made a roast and i made um
um-hum
oh i can't believe this my husband broke the coffee pot i just bought yesterday
oh no
i can't believe that anyway but um after when Ricky and Carrie came over
we made um a pot roast with rice and gravy and salad and the whole bit and normally i don't eat we don't eat like that during the week because of the you know the calories and the fat in it but
um-hum
uh-huh
you know when we're having guests we just kind of feel like just do it and i made blueberry cobbler and we had extra crust with it i mean it was so fattening but i don't think we gained any weight from it so
yeah
oh that sounds good
well every once in a while i i think i feel the same way when i'm entertaining i don't take that thing into consideration unless it's
really really like a lot of women will turn down dessert if it's too rich simply because they don't want the extra calories so i think dessert is the only thing that i kind of down play sometimes
um-hum
right i made a apple pan downy when the pastor and his wife came over and she didn't eat it
oh yeah
but i did bake apples so that it would be not brownies you know i figured there was less calories in apple pan downy than in fudge brownies
um-hum yeah
yeah yeah
so um i got a good brownie recipe
oh that's good
but uh anyway so i guess that's about what i do when i entertain
uh-huh
so do you have anything else you want to say about it or
um
nothing comes to mind right off so i guess not
okay well it was nice talking to you okay bye
okay you too bye-bye
