How did it go?

We do stuff like that all the time and it's always some different diet to
work around, but we've (our group) never minded.

Our last one went well and the next one is tomorrow. They have a liver dish
premo so warned me and i'm begging off on this one (grin). We do this meals
practically every week and no one minds as the membership shifts around a
food. Last time, i had to work around a fish-free zone meal.

Today, I've got a crockpot of great northern (white) beans on with some
onions and pork skin fat. Havent decided on spicing yet so they are just
warming up. Thinking maybe for once a can or so of crushed tomatoes and
something like zaatars seasoning? Plenty of time to decide.
