Ina is hosting a dinner party Friday night but has no time to make dinner. So she creates a menu that can be made in advance. Zucchini Vichyssoise, Rosemary Polenta, Chicken with Morels and Coconut Macaroons served with iced coffee.

Ina's friend is having a hectic day and she is making it better with a comforting home cooked meal. Oven Fried Chicken, Mashed Potato, Hearts of lettuce with Blue Cheese dressing and Deep Dish Apple Pie in front of the fire.

Ina's friend is hosting an art exhibition and needs a menu that can stand the test of time and can be eaten from a napkin. Grilled lemon chicken with a satay dip, cheese straws, cheese platter and spanokopita and edible topiaries.
