We tried to order picnic-able foods we can snack on during the long drive scheduled for later, hence some of the spongy baked items. Now, we ordered for 2.5 diners--my husband, Yodi, and myself while Pichu was taking her nap. However, as soon as I had submitted our order sheet, I found out my dad, his sister and her husband were joining us as they were already out and about shopping but hadn't eaten yet. My old man said he was starved and didn't have a penny to his name--in his pockets--so he thought he had to wait until my mom joined him at noon before he got to eat. So Yodi got to meet my relatives for the first time.
That was unplanned as I wasn't sure why it never occurred to me to introduce them.
So our "picnic" snacks were downsized pretty much to just the cakes since none of them ordered anything additional except for what we already had on our table, save for one new feature on the menu that caught my father's eye.
Yodi, of course, once again went into disguise so she was able to share the table with us while attracting little to no attention. It's amazing how much difference it makes when she becomes a masked caper.
