Last weekend's party for my grandnephew was pig-roast pork (Porky was
roasted 3 days earlier, carved and bagged for re-heating) with
accompaniments including a chicken roasted inside the piggy, sauerkraut,
The Famous Humboldt Avenue Graduation Beans, cabbage slaw, fruit kabobs,
that disgusting Snickers salad (gack), bars, beverages.
Today's party for my neighbor included Walking Tacos (small bag of
Doritos with taco meat and fixin's poured into the bag), fresh fruit,
bars, root beer on tap. I loved the Walking Tacos.
Fun times, both of them. When my kids were graduating you could pretty
much count on ham and turkey sandwiches, cole slaw, chips, pickles, and
bars. We did grilled chicken sandwiches with slaw, beans (TFHAGB), and
bars. Sounds like the parties are more innovative than 20+ years ago.
We now return to our regularly scheduled programming.
