Welcoming a friend home from US

On one of those lazy Saturdays, I held another potluck gathering at my home with my high school friends. One of them came back from US and asked my favor to have it at my humble home. Of course I said yes.

I attempted making sushi but it was kinda disastrous, as I didn't want to rolled them out early as it would be all soggy but I got excited when they were here and started ransacking (almost) my kitchen for one thing or another!

So, in the end, my adventurous plan to roll lots of stuffs into a piece of seaweed gets more and more fugly  and in the end, ditched the whole idea and just served them the sushi rice! What the heckaroo! But good ole friends shouldn't be minding about that and it was just IT! We had fun chatting and catching up and laughing the night away.

I need proper planning next time when I hold future home parties. First, I should go and get more stools! And then a folding table to put the food on! (Instead of cluttering the whole dining table) Then more garbage bags to hold all the garbage and more disposable utensils! OK! I'm ready and getting better in it already!

Meanwhile the kids were running amok all over the place and I was cool about it, not until when they left and hubs SCREAMED!!! when he saw pieces of food ON OUR BED!!! And I went "uh oh!!!! *faster hide myself* "

But it's all in the name of good spirit, for all of us who knew each other and spent a good few years in school together. Life's getting shorter, anything can happen and it's only proper to not only talk, but take action in cherishing our friendships. Cheers!!! *clang*
