Had some friends over for corned beef & cabbage yesterday. 10 people total 25 lbs of
corned beef brisket cooked in 21 cans of Budweiser and 6 bottles of Killian's Irish red ale.
5 lbs of potatos, 4 lbs of carrots, 5 loaves of Irish Soda Bread. two heads of cabbage ( I bought 4)
Nadine insisted we only needed two. when I bought the 2nd two she complained I was wasting money
(at 17 cents a pound - I don't think so). Of course I when I brought 3 loaves of Irish Soda bread at
$4.99 apiece, she needed to run out and get two more loaves at $5 a loaf. so I waste 87 cents on cabbage that i
can use for another meal or coleslaw, and we have $25 worth of Irish Soda Bread that if they ate two loaves out
of 5, I am being generous. Nobody drank the Irish whiskey, but we went through 3 bottles of wine
and some beers.
