I like to season the meat before cooking, during and after. When I am planning to have friends...

Dinner party
Annette's Notebook (Free subscription) | 02/20/2009
1:30 - I go shopping in preparation for a dinner party I'm having with a friend. I've never hosted a dinner party before. It's much more work, not to mention much more expensive, than I expected.

Technically, this is a potluck dinner, but as co-hostess I'm hoping...
