Life in the Fast Lane: Dinner w/ Bill Clinton Pt. 2 Assorted Ephemera


Not only did the President have seconds, but he had a to-go box w/ extra chicken waiting for him in the hot box for when he hit the road. He was slim and vivacious. His eyes are more sparkling in person than television and pictures can reflect.

Among those we saw were Star Jones and Maura Tierney-- she's quite petite! My picture of the President was taken right over her head...LOL.

It was touch and go leading up to the gig and the menu and number of guests expected were changing up to the very last minute. In fact, I received a text message with the final count after I had already set up and started prepping food-- an hour before service(!). Fortunately we had enough pork for 200. There were about 160.

Here are an assortment of pictures that have been due for over a month. I still owe a note on my experience cooking lamb that was sent to me by the American Lamb Board. Until then....

You got lamb too???!? You're the second blogger I follow who got lamb.

*sigh*

No one sends me anything....well, food related anyway.

Congrats on the Clinton deal! Naturally, your photos are delicious looking.

I'm glad I'm not the only one tardy in getting my lamb entry up!

Great looking stuff... Are you going to become a political barbecuer now? There would be good money there! :)
