[QUOTE="Karin, post: 108383, member: 57167"] Back in Philadelphia were the party guests seated for dinner in the big dining hall. Afton looked at the starter which consisted of little nick clams on the half shell and wondered how she was ever going to eat that slimy goo. She looked across the table where she could see Josephine and Henri eating their starters with a nice appetite. Afton leant over towards Mario and whispered, “How many dishes are there for dinner?” “Oh tonight we’re serving five courses,” Mario replied. “Five?” Afton exclaimed. “I think I skip this one then, you know I need to think of my figure for the wedding.” “You’re right you do,” Mario agreed before adding. “Besides gluttony has never been fashionable,” Mario then made a sign. Afton sighed in relief when the waiter came back and took away her plate again. “So what else is for dinner?” “The next course is chilled avocado soup with crispy shredded shrimp,” Mario replied and Afton sighed. “Then we’re having cold roasted duck with pineapple sauce.” “Of course,” Afton smiled strained. “Then for dessert we’re having fromage and finally we’re having coffee with chocolate éclairs.” Afton swallowed as she realized that she was in for a [I]long [/I]dinner with awful food.
