Bailey Summer Vacation

A little less than 4 months until the famous, annual, Bailey summer vacation. This brings the looming cloud: what to cook? I already have some ideas and after last year's experience, it'll be much easier.
I am thinking beef satay with peanut sauce and citrus broccoli ( carry on the Asian theme) with icebox key lime pie ( to carry on the citrus theme).
MIL already made mention that we'll need to cook more seafood. Nobody cooked any last year. Well, dear cousin in law and her family did, but it was frozen shrimp?? Well, thank heavens for shrimp anyways. This year there will probably be much more seafood because so few cooks will be in attendance. I hope to share Uncle Bob's shrimp. Dear Husband and I had that recently and I'll have to share the recipe. It was fantastic! - - I told DH I would cook shrimp if he cleaned it. These shrimp were quite large and they were FULL, I mean ENGORGED. It was disgusting and I am glad that DH was in charge. I would have been sick and then not eaten them ever again. I still feel queasy from what I DID see! Blehck!
In the words of Husband, "I digress." There are several recipes I need to share and I will . . . once finals are over.
I want to post my Easter Dinner. Sad news there. The pictures of the war wound and bowl of pie were deliberately deleted from the digital camera. I was told from now on all photos I take must immediately be put on my computer. Fine! I'll just ask for my own camera.
