debgeislerEvery couple of weeks, NESFA has a meeting. Some of these are "Business Meetings," which are more formal types of meetings (with voting and agendas and so forth); some of them are "Other Meetings."
Other Meetings are gatherings at a NESFA member's house, excuses to nibble and chatter the day away. Today, the OM was at our house.
When we first started hosting OMs, we started to lengthen them by offering dinner to folks. At warm weather meetings, it's not uncommon for a host to open a grill and people to stay a bit longer. We tend to also offer dinner to the folks who stick around in the cold weather, too.
Well, it got cold. And I wanted comfort food. So yesterday we went to Harrows, which (according to the Phantom Gourmet) has the best chicken pot-pies in New England.
Usually, we'll cook for folks...you know, make it ourselves? But they forgave us because the pot pies were so darned good. With or without veggies, they're simply wonderful.
So we have some leftovers for Tuesday. Tomorrow? Oh. King crab tomorrow. :-)
