okay Cindy you there
yeah
okay what kind of dinner parties have you had
yeah well i've had them uh where i've served up to twelve to sixteen people um and i had help with them um and
um-hum
part of them i did were like a buffet and uh it i had uh
uh-huh
just different uh side dishes and appetizers and one of them that that i'd remembered was uh
some uh sausage hors d'oeuvres and uh
anyhow uh you take uh a couple of uh
cups of Bisquick and uh
uh-huh
sausage oh like a a Owens mild you can i guess you could use the hot if you wanted to yeah and uh you
whatever you like huh yeah
put that in and then you get some real sharp cheddar cheese and put that in and a little bit of milk and
um-hum
make make it all doughy and then like i just put them in little balls and bake them for about fifteen minutes and they are so good
hm
oh that sounds delicious yeah
yeah it's making me hungry for them right now
yeah you know i've made like little Swedish meatballs but they're just made out of the beef you know
have you yeah
and uh with spices and things in them but never anything mixed with Bisquick
uh-huh
i i've used that quite a bit and it and it seems to work real well um and uh um
um-hum hm
when i've had so many people uh to to feed like i'd try to do a ham
an a turkey and and
yeah that's my that's my parties mostly is at Christmas time and Thanksgiving time
yeah
you know i've uh i had an open house party here once when after we moved in here
uh which i had uh things like that but i always cooked them ahead of time and then i just sliced them
um-hum
you know and had macaroni salad with uh shrimp in it have you ever had that
no what
get some fresh little fresh shrimp and it's in your macaroni salad that you make
uh-huh
the shrimp just gives it a really good flavor
oh i'll bet
yeah i don't like the can but the fresh you know
yeah i'll have to try that
yeah that was really good
i like things that are easy and and uh
nutritious
yeah right right but uh at uh Christmas time we just have a regular sit down dinner you know
uh-huh
which is kind of hard because you got so many people and then by time you pass everything around it seems like everything on your plate's cold
i know i know well thank God for microwaves you know
so but anyhow i
yeah you can always take your plate and just heat it up you know
yeah
but uh other than that i i don't have too too many parties uh you know i have like maybe just a couple another couple over for dinner
um-hum um-hum
but uh other than than than that i don't have you know a whole bunch of people like except except at Christmas and i have my family
yeah
right well i don't anymore yeah it's been a few years and and uh
i don't have you know over a couple either and and uh i try to
um-hum
uh have everything all ready and and it it just makes it a lot nicer where i don't spend spend all my time in the kitchen
yeah right right
and uh spaghetti and
yeah that's easy i always like to have that too you know everybody seems to like that too
yeah
i know i don't think i've ever met anyone that didn't
no everybody likes that
yeah
and then uh if you have a nice big roast that you can throw in the oven then you can put your potatoes and carrots or whatever else all in there you know especially if a pork roast that's what i love
oh yeah
i like it too
with my
and um other than that in fact i'm just thinking of what goes next weekend when the Super Bowl's on
i do too
um-hum
i've asked a couple people to come over and i just uh had been thinking what to have for that
yeah well have you had any good ideas yet oh okay
no not yet no and i you know i don't want to have to come away from the TV i want something that i can just take them and serve them while they're sitting in front of the TV
yeah
you know so i'll think of something just that that we can munch on over there you know
yeah
and they can just fill fill their plate up at intermission and then go back over there and sit down
and that's the way to do it too
yeah yeah
i think it's you know what's i think is so nice is that
in this day and time that we can have good food
that's good for you and you don't have to spend hours and hours and hours in the kitchen and and it makes an awful lot of difference doesn't it
yeah preparing it right
oh it sure does
well
well when i was brought up you know we didn't
