I have guests arriving Monday for 2-nights of a 4-night package. They had chosen Tuesday for the dinner night. I have a City Council meeting Tuesday night BUT that is MY problem, not theirs.
However as I was hanging out my laundry today, it occurred to me with Monday being the observance of Memorial Day, Jimmy's is closed as are many of the Ma & Pa restaurants and the fine dining restaurants are always closed on Monday. So I contacted the guests via e-mail pointing out this fact AND the dinner I plan for them is not time dependent. I can serve within 30 minutes of their arrival or whatever time they choose after they arrive. (The rolls will take 15 minutes to raise as the oven heats and 15 minutes to bake. I forgot I am doing sweet potato wedges but they can be baked and reheated if necessary as the rolls bake.)
She just e-mailed what I said makes sense. They are switching to Monday dinner. Woohoo!!
