Did I make enough?

jcollie719The cranberry sauce turned out great. Since the recipe uses orange juice, I took another cook's advice and reduced the amount of sugar I put in (2/3 cup instead of 1 cup.) I tasted the sauce; the cranberry and orange flavors do stand out without being too sweet. The recipe said it makes about 11 servings, which I hope is enough for a party of 24.
While I was out earlier, I picked up a dozen dinner rolls at King Soopers in case the 30 I bought yesterday weren't enough. I also did a couple of DoorDash deliveries. One of them had to be canceled because the restaurant was closed for Thanksgiving. If delivery demand is still good tonight and I'm not in too much of a food coma, I may do a few more deliveries after dinner.
UPDATE (9 PM): The cranberry sauce was completely eaten up, though I don't know if everyone who wanted it got some. Someone else also brought bread and rolls; only about one-third of the bakery rolls I brought were eaten. I took the rest home, along with the packaged ones from King Soopers. I felt completely stuffed at the end of the night and almost didn't have dessert. I waited a half-hour after finishing dinner then had a small piece of pecan pie. I wasn't really in a food coma, but I wasn't in the mood to do any deliveries tonight either.
