<-------sashays into living room resplendant in fishnets, French Maid’s outfit and midnight blue pumps. Carrying a sterile rat sized bag and a shovel, I quickly make work of the offending animal. Cougarfang? Leave the rest outside by the potted plants, and make sure you go before you come into the house -cackle-
<-----sashays out happily. 
Hiya Kat your desserts look lovely. Let’s put them on the table in the breakfast area. It’s near the soft drinks and open to the family room where the fireplace and pool table are.
I’ll bring my chili,2 bowls-1 mild and 1 blowtorch hot. My running partner sends along her habanero dip and french bread.

I’ll bring breads. I have some croissants made from scratch, and a big loaf of challah(four strand braid). The latter makes great toast if there is any left over.
Y’all have a choice; I can bring either [ul]
[li] 9 quarts of a kickass spaghetti sauce containing meatballs, hot & sweet italian sausage, lots of italian cheeses, and LOTS of garlic, simmered most of the day and thick enough to stand a spoon in; or[/li][li] 9 quarts of an equally kickass beef stew, containing lots of beef, potatoes, corn, green beans, peas, carrots, barley, egg noodles, and likewise simmered most of the day and thick enough to stand a spoon in; or[/li][li] 5 quarts of a damn good chicken biryani.[/li][/ul]
Can I get a vote here?
How about some homemade Milky Way ice cream? I just need to plug in the ice cream maker - where’s an outlet?
Abby, these asparagus spears are fantastic!
Here ya go…since this is fantasy and all, I brought the baked brie (in bread with strawberry preserves) and a wonderful shrimp-broccoli pasta salad.
(quickly looks up Chicken Biryani)
Can we have 4.5 quarts of spaghetti sauce and 2.5 quarts of Chicken Biryani?
I can bring a plethora of delightful desserts to please any palate. Cookies, cakes, and candies flow from my kitchen in a non-literal sense, because if they were literally flowing it would be like that episode of Gumby where Pokey left the bread dough in the oven and it rose and rose and rose and it ate them and they got stuck in this world where people got turned into jelly rolls and…
Wow. Gumby was really trippy, wasn’t it?
Anyway, I’m a baker. I bake.
Hmmm.
I think I’ll bring my Chevre, Walnut & Thyme spread, with some roasted figs and toasted baguette slices.
Oh, and devilled eggs, since no one’s mentioned them yet.
Well, I can make a darn good lasagna – so I’ll bring that.
::: off to virtually buy the virtual ingredients :::
Cougarfang’s ears perk up, and she sidles sneakily towards Abby, evil grin firmly in place, and pointedly ignoring 'Tooni.
Then she hears the word “lasagna”
Rowrr? Meow meow rowr purr?
She puts on her most innocent, angelic begging face and stares after the departing Monstre, eyes all wide and anime-style sparkly.
Rowr?
I’d like to bring a big pan of cheese and bean enchiladas with red chile sauce. How does that sound?
Oh, do you have a blender? I will bring Margarita fixin’s.
Byrani!
greek salad might add a bit a crunchy refreshing veggies to the table
I won’t try to compete with racinchikki on the dessert front, so how 'bout I bring a big pot of clam chowder–just need some fresh bread to go with it. Is that appropriate for a covered dish supper–I think they’re called potlucks in my neck of the woods.
I just got a nice jar of “Good and Evil Pickles” from Rhode Island.
My special red & sweet potato with cranberry sauce dish. And my sister-in-law’s vanilla ice cream made with brown sugar and creamed corn.
I’m not much of a cook – but my deviled eggs are excellent. Two dozen eggs would be 48 deviled eggs – do you think that will be enough?
I can make a mean shepherd’s pie, especially if the onions are fresh and I got Linda Ronstadt blaring on the kitchen boom box.
And Mrs. Dave-Guy will bring homemade chocolate chip cookies.
She’s such a good baker, it was her maiden name.
