souls and cooking

my dad says that i sold my soul to the devil in exchange for cooking skills.
now, why a father would say that to his daughter is besides the point. knowing my dad's quirky sense of humor, i'd say that it's actually a compliment. and i'm kind of hoping that it's a well grounded one because i'm about to go on a major culinary adventure.
i'm the designated party planner for my friends, so for this year's christmas party i've settled on a tea party. like, a honest-to-goodness british tea party complete with crumpets and lemon bars and a nice cup of chamomille herbal tea.
now, when i say major culianry adventure, i mean it. i have over 25 recipies for this party planned. that's a lot of food and a lot of cooking. most of these things i've never made before, so i certainly hope that my kitchen skills are up to it and that the recipies are sound.
but i'm way excited about this.
i'll post photos of each dish when the party date comes around.
