I had one medium slice, ate some veggies and prayed I wouldn't pass out from overeating. Dessert went okay but that happened an hour or so later.
She kept up but felt the same by dinner's end. We don't have children so it's an as we go dinner experience.

Mashed potatoes, sausage, duck - awesome. That butterscotch mousse is right up my alley.
