We have two main dishes: Stew and Vegetarian Chili
We could use another hot dish like maybe some kind of casserole. I should have enough power outlets if folks bring hot plates or crock pots; and those who were here last time will be happy to know that I have plenty of spare fuses. At least danceswithcats will be here to protect us, and I do have a brand-new fire extinguisher! :eek: (“3-A:40-B:C” whatever that means!)
-gobear and ultrafilter are bringing beer
-Mariemarie is bringing pie (This is her first MADopefest! Ya think she knows?)
-danceswithcats is bringing cookies
-Kim is making his “Deadly Black Bean Salsa”
Here are some suggestions:
Salad, like cole slaw or potato salad
Deviled eggs
Bread or rolls
Cheese and crackers
Veggies and dip
Chips and dip
Sodas
Cookies (more!)
Pie…mmmmm (more!)
Plastic plates, cups, spoons, forks, etc.
Paper or plastic bowls for hot foods
Everybody: Please look over the list of suggestions above and post what you’d like to bring. If you don’t volunteer, I’m going to start handing out assignments, and that’s a side of me that nobody wants to see. :eek:
I’ll be bringing cornbread to go with the main dish-y kind of foods, and probably a vegetable tray or something. There’s got to be something okay for me to eat there!
straining to be heard over the pesering squeals of whiny e-mail
All right, all right! Aureos (aka Kathy Everybody) have finalized our plans to be there on Saturday. Coincidentally, she’s moving to Wauwatosa on the 9th, so if JC don’t make it we can have it in her honor instead.
As a special treat, Aureos is going to bring a truly evil concoction known as…
THE FRUIT BOMB
Beer and wine may not be necessary in the quantities previously imagined.
Mmmmmm…PIE! Pie pie pie pie pie PIE! I think that about covers it.
“Brandy soaked raisins” sounds just like someone I know. In fact he’s coming to the party! The more the merrier! (Don’t change the recipe. It sounds yummy.)
Hey, I’m in!
I make killer deviled eggs, so there ya go!
Hell, we need as many people bringing beer as possible!
Oh, and this time, hopefully hubby won’t be suffering a horrible head cold and have to drag me out early, like he did last time! I didn’t get to talk to half the people I wanted to!
Billdo, thank you so much for posting here. Everybody thought I was making it up, or hallucinating on drugs or something. See, everybody? He really is coming! :dubious:
Norine, I’m so glad you’re coming! (But you’re wrong about wanting to talk to the other half of the people at the party. You talked to the kitchen people and they’re always the best ones!)
Does anyone else make deviled eggs? We could have a contest!
From the list, the only things we really still need are cheese and crackers, and salad type things like pasta salad, and desert type things.
