So-called Quiet ChiDope Potluck, October 13th

Okay, then…Jack and rum?

I’m assuming that Cokes will be available for the non-drinkers amongst us?

Just a bump for any stragglers.

I’ll definitely be there, but as mentioned before, a bit late due to family obligations in the afternoon. mags, can ya try to save a small piece of lasagne for me?

::BUMP::

We got more people coming! Woo! Expect more posts!

Apparently chique and Silver Fire will be coming along to represent the Minnesota delegation- uff da, ya, yubetcha.

I do NOT talk like that.

But yeah, I’ll be there.

I think I said this in the old thread, but dunno if it got carried over. In either case, I’m coming, and I’ll probably bring some cookies and booze.

Quix

We could use a big green salad, non-italian dishes, desserts, maybe some cider, a few more six-packs or bottles of wine.

If you still need directions, email me at peepinatrix@earthlink.net and I’ll send you the Evite that has all the info.

Is there a plan for Friday night?

Does everyone have a place to stay?

Okay, forgot to include:

Jeannie & Hubby -
Dropzone & spouse -
Dinsdale & Spouse -

If you don’t see your name on the list, email me!

I’ll also bring Fred the beanie baby monkey that has an alien facehugger firmly attached to his skull. It’s my totem animal at work- it reminds me that no matter how bad things are, I could always have an alien embryo implanted in my chest cavity that will burst out in a spray of blood and gore.

It helps me keep things in perspective.

I’ll bring some wine, I can do that. I also will be bringing some polenta with broccoli. I also have a card game that I’ll bring with just in case anyone wants to play some cards.

I am soooo excited. My boss is in town Thursday and Friday. I just know I’ll feel like I deserve a big night out with some wine, wine is always good!

Salad. I do believe I can handle making a salad, except I don’t have a big salad bowl. What I can do is pack everything in big Ziploc baggies and mix it all at your place, Jen. How’s that sound? :slight_smile:
Any sort of dressings people prefer? Should I just get a variety?

I think I can handle garlic bread too, now that I think about it. :slight_smile:

I was going to bring a spinach/artichoke dip.
Should I bring something else?

If you would, make a lot of it. I LOVE the stuff, and could eat it every day.

Not to sound like everyone’s mother, but why are discussing booze if this is supposed to be a quieter-type potluck?

Or am I an ass for bringing this up?

I missed out on my chance to nab a 30% off train fare, so I’m still sitting on the fence on coming or not. I’ll make one of these dramatic, last-minute decisions, probably.

:::drool:::

Super: I’ll see how much bread and garlic and butter I can afford.

Cranky: Quiet or no, it’s not a Chidope without liquor. :smiley:

so that’s what…a yes on the spinach/artichoke dip?

Just a reminder, anyone that is planning on crashing chez Nym is hereby invited, nay, begged, to bring a sleeping bag, blankie, pillow or whatever might soothe your weary person. There will be plenty of (carpeted) floor space, the air mattress for two and a couch for one, but with the headcount I’m coming up with, my two spare sets of sheets and one extra pillow may get stretched thin.

I know we all love each other, but I’m afeared of letting anyone down in my hostess capacity.

::pouts::

I’ll be there, I’ve already reserved a space on Nym’s floor. :slight_smile:

Yesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyes.

Nym: DIBS on carpeted floorspace!! Dibs dibs dibby dibs!!

OK, so now I have to figure out how to cart a pillow,blanket, salad, and garlic bread to Nym’s.
