Sunday Family Dinner - take 1

I have this grand notion that since we are no longer a TV watching, or even a TV possessing, family that perhaps we should do something familial.  Something considered fairly old school by today's standards.

Imagine a Norman Rockwell painting...Burnett style

It is exceedingly difficult to plan a family dinner when:
1. You can't find any food except dried beans and a bit of onion;
2. The 'active' yeast you try to use for your domestic goddess style french bread recipe is not, in fact, active and;
3. You can't actually see your dining room table

So Sunday Family dinner - take 1
Recipes: US Senate Soup, Homemade Quick Rise French Bread
Attendees: Daniel, Myself, Aurelia, Brynn, Diane Burnett

Verdict: Soup was incredibly bland, but let's be honest, there's only so many things you can do with WIC dried beans. 

French bread dreams foiled by non-active yeast - utter fail.  Daniel and Diane made a valiant attempt to tell me that it wasn't that bad, but it really was.

  Conversation interesting.  How can there be anything but interesting conversation with this around?
