You're Invited:
Mystery Ingredient Dinner Party

Hi friends,

You are officially invited to Mystery Ingredient Dinner Partybeta at my place!

Here's how it works:

Each person brings one ingredient. It can be something you love, something weird, or just something you're curious about.

I'll use what you bring to make dinner for everyone. The meal will be vegetarian (dairy, eggs, and seafood are OK), and I won't be cooking with fresh onion or garlic (though it's fine if they're part of something else, like a sauce or mix).

If your ingredient needs special prep or know-how, I may ask for help—especially if it requires sorcery I don't possess.

If it takes more than an hour to be cook-ready (like dried chickpeas), please soak/boil ahead of time.

Timeline

Cooking starts:5:30 PM
Dinner served:7:30 PM
Arrival:Close to 5:30 PM

Please arrive close to 5:30 so I have time to work your mystery item into the meal. And play with Teo

Our Guests

John Bishop & Jenn Sherry

Plus our hosts: Me & Jen

Special Guest Advisory

Our resident sous chef Teo (age: adorable toddler) is quite social and will likely be around until his 7pm bedtime. In our cozy apartment, he's pretty hard to ignore—but he's more curious observer than attention-seeker. Fair warning!

Important Disclaimer

I am not a professional chef. I make no guarantees. If things go sideways, there's a pretty good Thai restaurant around the corner.

Dietary Restrictions

If you have any dietary restrictions, let me know and I'll do my best to accommodate.

Can't wait to see what you bring!
