    well this will tell you how little we entertain. january 2004 is the last time that we have had friends over for dinner. we had a dinner in honor of our friend that is in the navy and was here for training before going to italy. there was me and dh, zach(the friend going to italy) and the 2 mikes. all of us know each other from playing games online. very odd group of guys. anyway, since it was in zach's honor he got to decide what i made. he chose spaghetti and salad. i also made homemade bread to go along with it. while the 4 guys goofed around on the computer, i made chocolate chip cookies for dessert. they had a good time teasing some other friends in irc about me baking cookies right then and getting to eat them fresh out of the oven. nothing particularlly special about hte meal itself, just bragging rights for our guests to pick on some other friends we have online. it seems to be quite the thing to brag about amongst the single guys in our group of friends to have one of the wives of teh married guys to cook you dinner or bake you something yummy.
