LOL. It was a long time before she was invited back. Come to think of
it, she was never invited back, but she did invite herself. I did not
bother baking anything ahead of time, and then she was fed pasta with
spaghetti sauce and sausage, about the cheapest thing I could think of
to fill the void.
It was comical when she came down for her mother's 70th birthday party.
SiL had offered to supply all the food if we had her, her husband and
kids here for dinner. It was a nice warm evening so we ate out on the
patio. When she asked where she should sit, I suggested a seat in the
far corner. Then I sat next to her and her stepfather on the other
side. We had her corralled, so instead of going to all the effort to
get everyone to move to let her out, she just sat there and ate and
drank and ate and drank until she puked. We moved to let her out for
that. :-)
