So, I woke up at 2:45 am last night and wrote the following email to my friend Jen, as I know sometimes she is up worrying in the middle of the night. The ironic thing is that just last night when we sat down to make our final plan/preparations for Sunday I said "I'm really not as nervous as last time. The meal will be easier to make, we have fewer reservations and we know what to expect as we've already done it once." So when I woke up after this dream I just had to write it down as I wanted to remember the dream/nightmare and at that time of night Richard is not usually up for hearing my crazy dreams! Please excuse the misspellings and typos, I was still half asleep. Also to everyone who's coming to our Sunday Supper this weekend it will be fine, I promise I will be prepared - so you don't worry, and neither will I!
omg, I think I just had the worst anxiety dream of my life! I just it's just in my subconcious! and I'm having on of those wierd toe things, where it cramps up? so i had to get up and walk around. ok, first I'm not even dressed and ready for the dinner, so I go to my car to go home and change and people are showing up, so I go back inside. and I can't remember what the appetizer is! then I remember and I realize no one has prepped the mushrooms! but I can handle that - oh but them i realize i forgot to buy the mushrooms! and of course neither you or andre are there yet. and the restaurant is huge and filling with people - from my high school - that hadn't called ahead for reservations... then I realize we don't have menus so I'm yelling at rich to get the template on the computer so I can type in the meal...some unknown waitress is bringing out to the tables your regular menu so that people can order from that... whole groups of people are getting pissed because they have no food, no drinks, no place to sit...I'm basically running around like a chicken with it's head cut off. I hope you are laughing!!! oh yeah, I had a saute pan on with the fennel and forgot about it and it totally burned... Whew - ok, my foot is better, and I feel better, will have to read this when I fully wake in the morning, I think it's the first email I'be ever sent without prooffing... hope you are asleep!!! Love B
Final note: I can't believe that there wasn't a tidal wave
looming over the restaurant too! Hope you are laughing too.
I would like to come to Sunday dinner but I can't figure out how to contact you!
