[QUOTE=Antinor01] That’s quite all right. I heard about this diet though, where you only eat once every 4 days! What do you think? [/QUOTE] I think that’s about as likely to work as \*\*Antinor01’s \*\* realizing that capes are \*\*so \*\* 2003. ---

[QUOTE=Rysto] Oh, my, I’ve been a bad host. **Zoggie** , here’s a vegetable plate. Try the yellow dip; it’s a recipe from my mom with curry in it. Very good, if I may say so myself. Now, you say you have a lot of fabric left over from your dress-making project? Did you buy too much, or did you just never manage to finish? What other projects have you tried? [/QUOTE] Oh, not that much…my mad skills are not what they used to be. Thank you for the dip, though! [QUOTE=Antinor01] That’s quite all right. I heard about this diet though, where you only eat once every 4 days! What do you think? [/QUOTE] I suppose it might work. Some girls have all the luck–they eat and eat and never gain so much as an ounce! ---

[QUOTE=Eureka] OK, OK, I’ll see if I can find a grocery store or something and buy something. Any suggestions of delicacies exotic enough that our hosts would enjoy them, but not so exotic I can’t find them at the local store? [/QUOTE] Can you get some dog? I’m sure you can find some at the pet store. Though you may have to gut and skin it on your own. ---

Well, really, now, would an anorexic have as much stamina as me? I ran two miles last night without even breaking a sweat! (Besides, I can’t live without my chocolate cake with the oozy frosting.) ---

[QUOTE=Taber] Hi, I’m Taber. Who are you? What kinds of snacks do you guys have? I enjoy parties, but I hate that I always arrive before others, I never learn to be fashionably late. [/QUOTE] Hi there Taber, welcome to the party! Can I get you anything? ---

[QUOTE=Antinor01] Hi there Taber, welcome to the party! Can I get you anything? [/QUOTE] Oh no, don’t get up, I can find the veggie tray alright. These parties are interesting.

Go buy that dog, skin it, gut it, then wrap it up. And I do think the hosts will like it. They won’t know what it is, lest they spy on their guests. They will say, “wow, what is this? This is great!” ---

What the…what? You guys are going to try to serve me dog? I may be drunk now but I’m not really inclined to snarf any “Scooby snacks,” if you get my gist. Why don’t you serve some of those teenie weenie pork by-products in a can. “Cocktail Weenies” I think they’re called. I wonder if **Eureka** likes meats that come in cans as well? ---
