Final Meal

For Lane and I's final meal we mad fish, green beans, party potatoes, Jimmy Carter dessert, and slush punch. We had problems with every step except for the punch. I kept forgetting about what we would have to do for stuff so that it wouldn't be a convenience and didn't take that into consideration time wise. I also didn't understand that bringing stuff from home would change how we could do things.

For the fish that we made I forgot to bring the mashed potato flakes from home so we had to find something else to batter the fish with.

For the green beans I didn't realize that canned green beans were different from any other kind so we would have completely messed that up if you hadn't said anything.

The party potatoes went pretty well for making them, but I forgot to mix the up again halfway through the baking process so that the sides of it didn't get burnt.

The Jimmy Carter dessert went really well except that I forgot that we would have to make our own pudding so I didn't get any eggs, thankfully Lauren had plenty so we used hers, and I also didn't think of having to do that time wise so we got set behind.

The slush punch is where I thought I'd made the biggest mistake. I meant to cut the recipe in half at the beginning so I added all the sugar that the original recipe called for. For the rest I cut it all in half and did it the way I was supposed to and thankfully the extra sugar didn't hinder the dish it still tasted great!

even though we messed up a lot of things in our final meal, we were able to make changes and do other things to make the dishes still taste great. Even some of our accidents ended up helping the dish instead of hurting it. Our guests liked everything we gave them and didn't complain about anything. So I'd say, all in all, ours turned out pretty good.
