The food came out great. I made three things:

1. Chicken in soy, ketchup and honey sauce (came out best).
   
2. Chicken in Coca-Cola (came out very good, though since I used some soup powder it tasted a bit like chicken soup).
   
3. Baked potatoes with rosemary (also came out very good).

I like the whole chef idea. I think I'll do this again, not only when my parents are out of town.

I talked to Naomi today. It's her birthday, and mine is next week, so I suggested we go out to celebrate our birthdays together next week. She said yes, as long as she doesn't have to stay at home. So that will be my chance to check what she expects from our trip to Italy, and whether we're going just as friends or as more than that.
