Saturday: Write grocery list. Get massage. Clean apartment a.k.a. Palace.

Sunday AM: Buy groceries.

Sunday PM: Make corn salsa, hummus, and caramel popcorn. Make DVD music video playlist.

Monday AM: Marinate chicken. Wash dishes so we're stocked for guests.

Monday PM: Roast chicken, make sweet potato chips, cut crudite, make grilled cheese bites (or mac 'n cheese bitelettes--still deciding).

Monday PM: PARTY ON!!

Stay tuned Tuesday to find out how it all went. Recipes will be posted on Pickled.
