Either way. For her I’ll make an exception regarding costumes. Can I tempt her with anything? What’s she prefer food and drink-wise? ---

OK, time for a little revival. The food is ordered. 2PM: Veggie trays Deli Trays Assorted snacks and such 5:30PM BBQ Chicken Pigs in a blanket (always a favorite) Mini Quiche Florentines (they’re vegetarian) Any other suggestions? Favorite beers? Wines? Name it, children. ---

Airman prefers Yuengling lager. That root beer from last year was pretty good, too. 🙂 (If you can’t find Yuengling, let us know.) Robin ---

I can get Yuengling. But the boy has um…easy tastes too satisfy. And Dominion Root Beer is **always** available at our house. Do we need to make any provisions for Aaron, Robyn? Anything you need? ---

Huh, I’d pay good money to see **WeirdDave** in his underwear. The man is HOT! (No offense, **Ginger**! 🙂 ) I wish I could come, but my boyfriend doesn’t want to go, and he doesn’t want me going without him. Hope you guys have a wonderful Halloween! ---

**Dave** , if the family budget gets tight, it sounds as if you’ve got a potential source of extra income! 🙂 **Gobear** , tell your BF he’s a stick-in-the-mud. **JC** , I’m personally amenable to Bass, Beck’s Dark, Killian’s, and Negra Modelo, in addition to Yeungling. Needless to say, I don’t expect you to stock all of these, but hopefully that’ll get some discussion going on the subject. ---

I don’t drink beer. Dave does. I don’t imagine he’s particular, either. I shall bring my own libations, if the host does not take offense. ---

I think it’s a new BF this Halloween, right gobear? Tell him we love him and to come out. Um. Such as it is. We always have some Guinness on hand. But it’s limited out here. Feel free to bring whatever you want. But, Ginger, I cheerfully predict that once you’ve tried our local raspberry wines you’ll be happy. Or maybe some mead. Honey wine is good good stuff. ---
