Onions

If you holler up the stairs on your way to coach your daughter’s soccer team, “Honey, can you chop some onions while we’re out?” and he says, “How many?” and you say, “One bag to start — more later,” and he doesn’t run away into the night….that one’s a keeper.

If we assume one curry (plus rice) feeds 4-6 people, and 75 people are expected for dinner, and each curry requires 3 onions (minimum) and there are 6-9 onions in a bag, how many bags of onions does one need to chop in order to not stress out about not having enough food?

It’s totally unreasonable to make three extra curries and freeze them ‘just in case.’ It is. Be quiet, brain.
