[QUOTE=BiblioCat] So Naked Beer Slip & Slide is on then? šŸ˜ƒ [/QUOTE] Well. I doubt your Merrylanders could handle Naked Beer Slip & Slide, but at least two of us will be ex-Northerners (Yukon and NWT) and should have no problem. We even have a hill! ---

My mother is not yet sure if she will allow me to come, seeing as how Iā€™ll be driving near Baltimore. Apart from cookies (which have already been covered) and napkins, Iā€™m really not sure what I can bringā€¦ ---

I always have trouble with the naked beer. I picked up two half-gallon jugs of egg nog. (Then got home and read the small print, ā€œNo cholesterol, non-dairy. Does not contain egg or nog.ā€ Oopsie.) Does this stuff mix better with rum or kahlua? ---

Do you think thatā€™s enough of everything, or should I pick up more of something? ---

I personally think it mixes better with whatever else has been recently poured down the drain. Captain Carrot, if you think youā€™ll be attending, EMAIL ME for the address and directions. And you donā€™t _really_ go anywhere near Baltimore, weā€™re in the suburbs. ---

[QUOTE=Jelymag] Hmmm, I think I may actually be in that general area but when I mentioned to my husband that we should go to a strangerā€™s house and eat food with a bunch of other strangers he looked at me as if my brain had been invaded by aliens. [/QUOTE] So, your husband has always, his entire life, known everyone that he knows now? He knew them in person before he met them? Thatā€™s quite a trick. ---

Well, thereā€™ll be my two, and a few Canadian kids (two for sure), and possibly Young Mr. Doors. I donā€™t know for sure of any others. Thatā€™s AWESOME, by the by. Jimmy loves the fire engines whizzing up and down Putty Hill like theyā€™re on their way to a fire or something. šŸ˜ƒ ---

**Ginger** how far are you from the Easton/St. Micheals area? My GF is trying to get me to go up there with her this weekend, and then leave me with her socially immature brother-in-law while her and her sister hit the town. ---

Young Mr. Doors loves fire trucks and stuff and Iā€™m sure heā€™ll be tickled to meet actual firefighters. Iā€™m sure I can bring a textbook to study in the car. Annual fund contributions, anyone? Robin ---
