Impromptu MN football mini-Dopefest

Was talking to Silver Fire in chat …we’re kinda planning a mini-DopeFest out here at the farm next Sunday. Since you two and Silver are both broke I proposed a pot-luck out here at my place. The Vikings game starts at noon so let’s plan on that for a time, eh? I know you might have the kids - they’re welcome, too - if you stick around late enough they can see my father milk cows; they may get a charge out of that :slight_smile:

Am posting here cos some other MN Dopers might be interested…all are welcome - as long as you bring food with you :slight_smile: Oh, and suggestions for a main course welcome - chilli maybe? Lasagna?

If anyone comes up from the Cities there’s no prob with overnight sleeping space - plenty of it here.

I’ll probably bring cookies. :slight_smile:

YES, I am really going to show up this time. I’m looking forward to meeting everyone.

I’ve never been on an actual farm before. Can I watch him milk the cows, too? :slight_smile:

Hee hee…yah, of COURSE, Silver…just don’t look too eager or my father will co-opt you :wink:

Oh no, I’m not interested in actually MILKING a cow, I just want to watch.

I’d probably do it wrong and hurt the poor thing…

it might mean bringing a kid or two. Would that be all right with you? I am the only one up right now, so I will discuss it later with Bob when he gets up. We would love to see the farm, I’m sure, and meet Silver Fire. It just would take a little arranging because of visitation.

Thanks for asking!

I don’t know yet if I could make it. I’ve got some contractors coming in that day to start some remodeling, and their schedules are booked weeks in advance.

I’ll see if there’s anything I can do.

I hope you can make it too.

I am hoping to talk imthjckaz into making some of his divine guacamole sauce.

Wish I could, but next Sunday is booked solid for me. Sigh, lament. Possibly another game later this season, though.

I’d be perfectly willing to do this again in the future, for those who can’t make this one.

Now lessee, Rysdad, might not show, lno, is a definite no go.

Hmmm, it’s me and 3 wimmins.

Sounds good to me.
There won’t be Purple and Gold doilies around, will there?

Well, grampa’s going to be there…but I think you can take him :smiley:

Just a bump, for those who haven’t seen this yet…

Spider Woman - As I said in my email…yes, kids are cool - just keep them out of the crystal, eh? :wink:

Rysdad - really enjoyed meeting you previously - would like to see you again :slight_smile:

lno - you, too…next time, ok? :wink:

Also…would not have a problem with this happening again, for those who can’t make it this time around. Is nice to have a place where I can accomodate plenty of people :cool:

A lot.

Found out an hour ago that we have some relatives coming in from out of town for the weekend. Gah. Sorry about that…

Whaddaya say we shove it back a week to the 30th, same time same place? Any takers?

So far, nothing is going on then for us. imthjckaz took his daughter to skating practice in the Cities tonight, so I can’t say for sure, but it will probably be fine. He is going to make guacamole sauce as our offering, and we will bring chips, if that is okay.

Ah, well, at least someone loves me…thanks, Spidey! Guacamole and chips is fine; just warn imthjckaz he’s not to bitch about my chili [sub]I AM a Swede, remember [/sub]:wink:

Still sounds like a good time to me.

:smiley:
[sub]ow! ow! ow! ow! ow! ow! ow! ow!!!

That’s the problem with Spiders, they got eight legs to smack you upside the head with.

Hey!!! No biting!!![/sub]

sigh This is what I get for moving to Texas. And I wish I could be there, even if y’all are a bunch of Viqueens fans :wink: I’ll be with y’all in spirit, tho.

HEY!!! What’d I say? :smiley:
