Passion
Lately all I’ve really wanted to do is cook. It’s an awesome feeling preparing food, being creative and sharing those creations with others. I even do it on vacation. Recently I went to LA and visited my friend Chris Puleo and instead of going out every night I cooked a roast because I’d been thinking about it for weeks. Yes, I think about ingredients as I fall asleep at night.
Starving
I’m a starving artist, as such I’m broke as hell. I’ve been living off $20 a week since the middle of July. That’s the problem that I’m hoping to solve with this experiment. Can I get people together help offset the cost of food and still get to do what I’m passionate about at the moment? Isn’t that always the problem with creatives? If I could solve that problem I’d tackle world peace next.
My solution
I’m putting a dinner party together where I’d normally just cover the cost to host (because it’s seeing the people you love that is the real value), this time I’m taking a cue from other events and charging a cover. That cover is a per person cost of food alone. No need to get greedy, right?
Details:
Cover will be $7/person.
Food: Barbque Ribs and baked potatoes, side of watermelon.
Drink: Some form of Lynchburg Lemonade.
Full after 7 guests confirm.
This is an experiment; if successful more dinners will be planned in the future.
