112. Cook an Extra Steak
Here’s the math: If 6 people are eating, make 7 steaks.
Why? Simple. What happens when that 7th, unexpected guest shows up? You know they will. Someone’s friend will have tagged along or a neighbor pops over. You can then say to that unforeseen 7th, “Hey Derek, you want some food?” To which he’ll respond, “Oh, no, that’s ok, I don’t want to impose. You guys are all set up here.” You then reply with the coolest thing that can be said at a summertime barbeque, “Don’t worry about it, I made an extra steak!”
This 7th guest is now indebted to you forever, or until he makes you a steak, whichever comes first.
