Hi, my parents' 50th anniversary is rapidly approaching, and we have plans for immediate family to get together (10 of us) - but my mum is currently housebound with her health, which rules out going out to a restaurant for a celebration dinner. She's downplaying it, suggesting a normal takeaway, but I'm thinking of ways we could make the event more special.
I'd wondered about hiring a private chef (though their kitchen is basic, so a lot would need to be done in advance), or if we could buy pre-prepared stuff (not ready meals, more fine dining than that!) that we finish off. My SiL and I could cook something from scratch, but mum wants to see us rather than us being stuck in the kitchen. They are ruralish in the north east, so don't have a lot of options around us.
Any suggestions of what we could do / what kind of service we could use?
[ waves to SiL if she sees and recognises this situation, as I know she uses MN - will call you this weekend to discuss!!]
