Final Menu, notes and Critique from last night's party....

Well technically it was an few more than 24 hours I guess....

I landed at 3pm, stopped to get my FRESH eggs from a friend and went home and crashed until about 6pm and then I started hitting the stores. Came home and cooked from about 9pm until 10:30-11ish mainly getting the salmon rillettes done and the tenderloin marinating.

Slept in until about 8:30 or 9:00. Turned on the work computer and tried doing some work as I was cooking (mainly between batches of bacon because I couldn't find my second wire rack). Fixed the almonds, bacon, bagna cauda and blanched the veggies before loading up. Started loading up around 1 when I realized that it was about to pour down. Was red in the face and dying hot at that point and starting to panic. Got a shower and got to the host's house around 3 after picking up a few forgotten items and the rolls. Did pretty much everything else from there between 3 and 7.

I had stuff to make gougeres but didn't get to them smileys/frown.gif and stuff to make some chicken liver spread.

 
Coming off the heals of catering a party myself, I have to say, you are amazing!

There's no way I could have pulled that off in such a short amount of time. The shopping alone nearly did me in!

 
I assumed they were the same as well - the reason I know the price for certain is:

1 - I have the receipt from my latest trip sitting here on the desk next to me

&

2 - I would never have bought them at that price. smileys/smile.gif

I haven't noticed them at my Costco, I'll definitely check for them the next time I go.

Which Costco do you usually shop at?
