recover damages

Susan, a wealthy widow, invited an acquaintance, John, to her home for dinner on a specific date at a specific time. John told Susan that he would be delighted to come to dinner and, eager to impress Susan, spent lavishly in preparing for the evening. His purchases included a new blazer, new shoes, and expensive floral arrangement, and champagne as gifts for Susan.

At the agreed upon time, John arrived at Susan’s house only to find that she had left for the evening. John went home and sent Susan an email saying that he came for dinner but she was not home. The next day Susan sent Jonathan an email saying that she was sorry that she had forgotten the dinner and had gone to the theater with friends.

Assume that the facts given are admitted and not in dispute.

John wants to sue Susan to recover damages. Can he? Are all of the elements of a contract present in this case? Is there consideration? Don’t be distracted by the silliness of the situation. Concentrate on the questions related to contract.
