Success!!!

3 hours ago I started thinking *I need to start thinking about dinner* half hour later, my loving husband called me and asked if I could fix enough for some friends of ours and be ready to eat when he got home....panic immediately set in. I had 1 hour and I had nothing--I was just gonna fix some chicken helper. I can't feed guests chicken helper...I only had 2 boxes and it was a kind we hadn't even tried yet. I went scrounging through the deep freeze and pulled out some steaks from his deer last season, ran them upstairs and started to thaw them, as they thawed I ran out to the garden and picked a couple zuchinnis and cucumbers. Within a few minutes I had them sliced and the cucumbers salted and chilling, and the zuchinni was breaded and ready for the fryer. Fruit salad came next and then the steaks. Cookies too...I managed to have a feast prepared and the table set as they walked through the door. Everyone had plenty to eat, and the whole time, everyone was talking about how good it was!!! Now, everyone is gone and I get to sit back and relax...I think I earned it
