Forrest may be just slightly later arriving than he'd like, although it's a fair bet that he wanted to be early so on the balance of things that's just fine. It's taken him more time than he expected just because of how much he's carrying. There's a basket over one arm, and a large heavy covered pan that requires both hands. The smell of homemade fried chicken that wafts from the latter is unmistakable and mouth-watering. In the basket are fresh bread rolls to go with it, and a jar of butter just in case there wasn't any on hand. Cricket's party will not go without good food.
Forrest assumes he doesn't need to bring drinks, because Cricket has been doing quite well on that front by himself.
