cooking for company.....

ok, so i am into my second week of cooking for company....by which i mean for folks who are not in our little circle of 5.......one can never think of one's own children as company...and as a mother i live to prepare my children's favorite foods.....but i digress.....i am running out of ideas for what to fix.......at this point our dinner guest cannot eat anything hard as these foods cut into her gums under her dentures....a sad state for someone only 32 years old.....we have a new guest for supper on wednesday.......a nephew traveling from illinois back to d.c.......no idea what he likes so i will cook what i know his father likes......and then thursday we are back to just the circle for a few days.....this morning our guest was with us bright and early for breakfast.....and so i made 3-potato latkes and scrambled eggs (mostly eggbeaters...) and canadian bacon....this evening i have already cooked ribs to serve with macaroni and cheese.....not much effort required, though i will make the cole slaw from scratch...not sure if cabbage is too hard, but i like slaw with my ribs.....and sometimes you have to make what you like without guilt.....
