Sorry, but I wasn’t able to get photos of the actually cooking process as I was running around like a madman trying to keep all the balls in the air.  But everything seemed to come out right, and the girls cleaned their plates.  Had seconds of some dishes, and took all the leftovers home.

It was great fun!
