Food To Feed An Army
Lori carried two more of her square cake pans to the table and began to mix frosting. Her large sheet cake was baking now. It was a confetti cake with vanilla frosting. She thought it would look pretty with pink colored vanilla frosting. She couldn’t resist adding a few flowers on top of the pink frosting.
That sheet cake would be nothing but an empty pan before the picnic was over. The kids especially devoured anything chocolate. Lori Ann loved baking and everybody complimented her when she did. She always made too much and sent some home with guests.
A large group was coming to their indoor/outdoors party at two o’clock and she would be ready. When they arrived she would serve punch in glass cups for the adults. The kids would have a virgin punch in paper cups. Snacks would be all over the place. She had deviled eggs, cheese and crackers and slices of summer sausage on slices of cucumber.
For those strictly healthy-food people she had a ton of veggies and dip. The house would be filled to the brim with both food and guests. Out on the patio the umbrella was up and the table and chair patio set washed clean. There were odd lawn chairs scattered on the patio and some on the grass. There was a redwood picnic table for the kids to sit at.
They would all have a lot of fun. Babies would cry, toddlers would fight over the picnic table and her sister’s new baby would arrive, cuddled in her little graco snugride infant car seat. She hadn’t seen the baby yet. She was only four weeks old. Her name was Ruba and she was said to sleep a lot of the time. She put out plastic toys for the kids.
The badminton net waited further out on the lawn. She checked for the fourth time to see if the ladder to the above-ground pool was secured in the up position. It was, but she’d probably check three more times before all the little kids came.
Meanwhile Todd was preparing the grill and taking out all the cooking tools. They’d have burgers and brats and of course the traditional hot dogs. It made sense to serve easy-to-eat food to such a large group. She had potato salad and macaroni salad in four large bowls in the refrigerator. The tray of pickles and olives was chilling in there too.
She rushed up the stairs and went in to make sure her daughter’s loft bed was made. Then she showered and put on a new summer dress and sandals. Later she might change into shorts and join the basketball game. She knew the day would be fun for everyone. Well Aunt Bertha might grumble about something, but that was to be expected at any of their gatherings.
