Dinner Was a Success

Well, both Andy and I survived each other while cooking this delicious dinner for our best friends. Neither of us like lamb, but we fixed it for those who do; but we did have our hot dogs.
Andy was late, so I started fixing the cake, but by the time the brie was done, and I was about to put the cake in the oven, he showed up. He did make the rolls and hot dog buns. I did some research on how to roast lamb and what spices to use. I made a mixture of garlic powder, onion powder, Italian spices, black pepper and Sea salt. I sprinkled the mixture on the lamb chops and let them marinate over night. On the dinner menu, we made brie, tomato/ mozzarella salad, and a relish tray. For the main course, we had crown lamb, asparagus with a sauce, roasted potatoes with olive oil, Italian spices, black pepper, and sea salt. and for dessert, we made a yellow cake with chocolate frosting. We did get some rave review on the meal. To be honest, I will be very glad to fix an elaborate meal for the great friends we have.

By the way, Scott is making a lamb stew for the camping trip this weekend, which I am looking forward to. Hope the weather is cooperative.
