You got the salt and hot stuff covered, but I don’t see 'nuf sweet to make me happy. I’m bringing in one of my cakes–four layer, dark chocolate with cocoa whipped cream frosting–to tide us over while the brownies and chocolate chip cookies bake, and the fudge sets real fast like in the ice box, so that’ll be ready in a jiff. For those of you that think sweet can be something other than chocolate (there’s no accounting for taste, but you’re welcome to your own), I’ve got ginger snap–the crisp ones–and lemon squares. My sister, she’s been up in the big city, she adds some kiwi fruit to the lemon squares. Thought I’d be posh and do it too–pick it off if’n you don’t like it.

Now, somebody said something about cards–up for a game of Hearts? And pass those chicken wings.

If I can just borrow the microwave a sec, I’ll whip in this rack of Spam for y’all…

In _this_ container, I have some chocolate chips and salt peanuts mixed together…

A slow-cooker full o’ chili made with stewin’ meat and cajun seasoning…

And if there’s still a spare deck of cards…anyone for euchre?

_Chez Geek_ but no _Chez Dork_ or _Munchkin_?

Don’t mind if I sit down even though I’m not familiar with most of those. I hope you’re willing to teach a newbie.

Oh, and for others looking for the unpretentious card games, as my parents are from the midwest, I have it on good authority that _Canasta_, _Pinochle_, and _Five Hundred_ are very high on the list. I’m pretty sure I have a spare deck or two around here (learned that from my mom - she never went anywhere without one).

What kind of munchies can I bring?

And can I bring my home brew? Or is that too pretentious?

Hmmm…what kinda beer y’all got in the fridge? I brought some J. Echter Hefeweiss, and I’m willing to share.

No one minds if I throw on some Cowboy Mouth, do they?

Shoes are off. Deal me in.

Y’all need some more dip…here’s some of my special homemade french onion dip (Liptons + Sour Cream). And, um, **Ahunter** that pen was just in my ear…

More salsa for me…

How about some M&M’s sprinkled on salty popcorn…we need some of that…where the hell are the BBQ’d pork rinds?

This has had more success than I expected. Glad to see everyone here. Hillbilies and women in comfortable hockey skates are welcome, just no snobs.

I’ll toss in a 6 pack of Iron City.

So, how many people in the Hearts game? 6? 7? Anyone for double deck or triple deck? The Bitches are on the loose!
