The dumbest generous thing I ever did that I don’t regret and am still triggered by was hosting a Marcella Hazan themed dinner party for 25 people that featured a fresh fava bean dish portioned to feed them all. Peeling fresh fava beans is the Khyber Pass of dinner party prep. Don’t ever do it unless you’re trying to get a job, investors for your movie, are trying to seduce one of your guests, or you just really truly enjoy them all very much.
