The Shrimp is Ready

Turns out Paul did have a plan to make sure the additional guests were fed.  He hired me!  So I popped over to Hotel Monaco yesterday and started preparing some dishes.  Paul is showing the shrimp display I completed.  I got a few more dishes started, but Paul provided me with a whole list that he wants me to work on.

I decided to put it in a clam shaped bowl I made form a soap mold.

There is a little bit of ice beneath the shrimp.  We will add more on top to keep the nice and fresh.

Well, I got to go.  I hear Adele calling me.  She needs some help making sure everyone is ready for the big production.  Have a wonderful Sunday!

Meanwhile Back at Hotel Monaco...

With all the guests that are headed to Morristown, I was a little concerned about not having enough food at the reception.  I alerted Adele to the potential problem and she jumped into action.

Paul is the head chef at Hotel Monaco.  He is taking a call from his boss, who announces she is on the way down.   Oh, this can't be good.

"Hey Paul.  So how are things going with the Taylor reception?"  (Lauren)
"We are doing well.  We are pretty much on schedule."  (Paul)

"Well, I hate to do this to you, but I just got a frantic call from the wedding planner and it seems like they need to add about 30 more people."  (Lauren)
"They need to do what!  There's just no way.  I can't prepare food for 30 more people." (Paul)
"I know it's a major inconvenience,  but we need to figure out something fast."  (Lauren)

Paul walks around the kitchen thinking.  Lauren isn't too far behind him.
"You know you are going to owe me big time if I pull this off."  (Paul)
"I wouldn't ask you if I didn't trust that you could work your magic."  (Lauren)
"You don't have to keep buttering me up.  I will figure out something." (Paul)
Lauren is elated.  She thanks Paul then heads back to her office hoping there isn't another crisis waiting for her.

Paul has been here for over a month now.  He's been hanging out with his wife and two kids.  No time to chat now.  He has to get back to work preparing more food for the out-of-town guests.  Can't wait to see you guys!

Lauren is wearing another wonderful outfit from Gabi-mates.  I have been meaning to share the whole outfit with you, but haven't gotten around to it.  It comes with an awesome vest coat, leather boots, and a leather handbag.
