SO excited (and sad) for tonights party. Our good friend is moving to Baltimore MD she has a new job as the President of an all girls school. She also has a passion for US Presidents! So Chef Phil and I are giving her a going away party "Dinner Impossible" style.
She gave us a list of her top ten US Presidents we had to create a menu based on the favorite foods of some of those men. She has no idea as to why she had to provide the list...this is gonna be fun. Will post photos, but here is the menu
John Adams - French Cheese Board
Harry Truman - Aspargus and Tomato salad
FDR - Hot Dogs
Teddy Roosevelt - Bison Sliders
Abraham Lincoln - Corn bread with bacon
JFK - Boston Baked Beans
George Washingtonm- Cherry pie
She HATE George W Bush...I'm a fan so we are also having Pretzles
Now for one that needs a lot of explaining
James Garfield - Squirrel Stew Garfield was shot while president but did not die right away he was ill for 2 months and was not getting better and was not eating. His FAVORTIE food was Squirrel stew and his Dr's thought if he was served the Squirrel soup/stew he may eat it and recover. So special permission was granted to shoot squirrels on the White House property. He never did recover. We are not serving squirrel but we are making a cornish game hen stew and calling it squirrel stew....this should be interesting!!
Wish us luck!
