Excess/Shortage Analysis
Too Much (+)
- Diet coke (only used 12 of 48 cans)
- Sour cream (could have used just 500ml instead of 1.5L)
- Cheese (1 block would have been fine instead of 2)
- Hard and soft shell tortillas (slightly too much of each, but it's fine because it lasts)
- Beef (could have used 1.5 orders instead of 2.5)
Too Little (-)
- Tomatoes (slightly too few)
- Avocados (needed ~12 instead of 8 for guacamole)
- White onions (needed more for guacamole)
Notes
- 11 people attended: Connor, Graham, Calvin, Isaiah, Adam, Drew, Martin, Caleb, Wyatt, Emily (Wyatt's girlfriend), and Jesse (Ace's girlfriend)
- We sang "West Virginia Country Roads"
- For next time: Have board games set up in advance (Scrabble on the table)
- Guacamole was very popular - prioritize more ingredients for this next time
