We fed 15 college students, plus ourselves and two friends our "traditional" end-of-term steak dinner. Our church's bible college is called "The full time training", it is a very strict environment and so the students enjoy being in homes for dinner once a week. Last term we had a steak dinner for some of the guys, we found out last week that it had gained the distinction of "traditional" and that there was a sign up sheet with a waiting list.
We didn't want to disappoint...so we grilled up 21 steaks. uhm, next week we are having hot dogs...

That's so kind of you to do something like that. Twenty-one steaks, though would kill my budget.

Mine's up. Come take a look.:)

Wow! That's some kind of table you've got! Actually, that's some kind of room you've got there. We have a tiny dining room and actually had to cut down our dining room table to fit in it. *chuckle* That is a very nice photo. I just need to know where that sign-up sheet is for next year! ;)

firefly,
thanks for visiting and commenting! I enjoy your blog very much. The table is actually 3 tables put together..and you are looking at two rooms- the dining table is usually turned perpendicular and sits in the dining room, the room behind it is the family room-with the fireplace you see, the two rooms are just very open. In our old house, we didn't have a dining room and just had a small kitchen table in the kitchen that wouldn't seat four unless you pulled it away from the wall...we are very blessed in this house which is more than twice the size of our old house. The first thing we purchased when we moved was our dining room table which seats 6..we were so excited!
blessings,
Jenny

elementaryhistoryteacher,

thanks for visiting! this would have killed out budget too, but the Lord blessed us to let us bless these young people. The day we found out that this dinner was now a tradition...my husband got a check in the mail for working as an inspector for the election polls. He used this check to buy the steaks. We only spent around 30$ extra on the meal out of our own money. It worked out so well. We had such a wonderful evening with them, it was so well the effort.

What a generous person you are. They look like they had a terrific time. It's great to get a homecooked meal.
