Looks like I will be at the deck party tonight after all.    After an early morning trip to the grocery store I came home, steamed 2 different veggies,  peeled, cooked and mashed 5 pounds of potatoes, made a huge salad with all kinds of veggies in it and seasoned the roast.   I was actually washing the last pot when my cousin called and said they couldn&#39;t make it.   Seems their dog is sick and she was afraid to leave him.   So once the party starts tonight - you will all recognize me    I&#39;ll be the one with the steam coming out of my ears.   Oh well.  now I just have to make room in my freezer for a 5 pound roast.   <br /><br />Think it&#39;s time for some retail therapy.
