Menu Assistance?

Jim&Jaime

We'rehaving two of my college friends and their daughter over for dinner onSaturday, and I?m having trouble settling on a menu for the evening. I wantedto do something nice, but I think we?re all ?Holiday Dinnered? out, so Ithought something easy and comforting would be good. Here?s what?s knockingaround in my head:  TexasCrockpot Chili, Jalape?o Cornbread Whoopie Pies, OR  Pulled PorkSandwiches, GreenChile Mac & Cheese,  With both, I would do a Tossed Green Salad, and I'm thinking  dessert would be Ina's Brownie Pudding or Ice Cream Sundaes. Thoughts? Other ideas?

I like both options. My only complaint is that everything is spicy (although I guess the pulled pork shouldn't be too spicy).  I think it would be better to balance it by having one spicy dish and one not-spicy dish. 

I think the brownie pudding with whipped cream sounds delicious for dessert.

I think I like the pulled pork better.  I know I only eat it infrequently, whereas chili's pretty common, so the pulled pork would be a treat.

Mmmmm, I want to come.  If I didn't have oatmeal scotchies on the menu I'd be all over those brownies.
