Last night I attended a dinner party at Will & Erich's place. Will made lasagna, along with a nice pasta salad and a lettuce salad. Both the salads has olives, which I don't like. I gave the olives to Christian, but they were covered in ranch dressing, which he doesn't like. So into the trash they went. For dessert, I brought sweet and tasty treats from The Cupcakery. I was afraid fights would break out when fifteen people attended and I only brought a dozen cupcakes. After eating my own Lemon Berry cupcake, I left to come home-- I had to wake at 430am for work. Before my departure, however, there was a loud discussion concerning the cost of each cupcake, which is about $2.33. David, a friend of Will & Erich's with whom I have socialized several times, argued quite vociferously that this was an outrageous cost for such a small dessert. He was unpersuaded despite everyone's efforts to assure him that they were high quality treats. In the end, I teasingly banned him from having one... but what he did after I left, I do not know.
