operation: feed the family

Realizing it is going to be near impossible to go out to eat {or out anywhere, for that matter} with a group this large we are thinking ahead of the curve to arrange grocery delivery and meal planning prior to the trip.

Enter Janie. She has been nominated Queen Caterer for the trip.

Now, this feat might sound duanting for most anyone, but rest assured Janie has more experience cooking for 10+ than fewer. Even though her everyday household has dwindled through the years...with growing children, friends of theirs, friends of the family and extended family...it was a rarity that dinnertime included only her brood.

Shirley's sister Mary {pronounced May-Ree} who lives in DC and has agreed to do our grocery shopping before we get there so we don't have to attempt to shop when we arrive and/or bring items from home...how nice is that?? Thanks Mary!

Meanwhile Janie is gathering likes, dislikes, food allergies and favorites from all those coming and will be planning meals to feed we girls each night.

Thank You Janie!
...we'll be waiting for the dinner bell to ring!
