Garden Angel Quilt Raffle Party!!

Looks like a small party, though...

Count me in! I'll eat the sushi AND the sashimi!

Will do my best to be here at least a little while before the 9:00 drawing...I can just imagine the anticipation! "And the winner is.........is........issssss......!"

Has Dave said yet he might do this in a special "Chat"??

But we will need to be able to post pictures of the food we are all bringing! I want some of that eggnog to get me into the Christmas spirit!!

Well, photos won't work on Chat, LOL.

Hehehe...I want some of dat eggnog too! Yummy!

Would like to see a forum thread for the party myself. Some folks can't get into the Chat room and would miss out on all the fun. Of course now, with a running thread, I imagine all of us will be hitting the "Refresh/"Reload" button every 5 seconds...hope it won't over-swamp the system!

Hmmm....what a fun time. Maybe I should make some rabbit liver pate'....

♫ Do ya wanna pate' ♫♫ ;>)

How big are dem rabbit livers, LOL.

awwww, those poor, poor little liverless wabbits!

SHUCKS! Since SOME OF US like eating high on the hog...I'm fixing something VERY special...Pinto Beans cooked with HAM...and Cornbread...and slab or REAL butter.

Now...don't crowd...I'm bringing enough for all.

Jo

Jo that sounds mighty good to me but ya need some fried taters to go with it.

Yes Peggy, just in case there are not enough carbs in pinto beans and cornbread! LOL I guess Atkins is out Monday night!

Think I'll throw some dry red beans, jalapenos, onion, chili seasoning and a big chunk of lean beef or pork in a slow pot,
When the meat is tender enough , pull it with 2 forks until all is shredded.

After the beans that have been cooked down and beaten to a refried bean texture, mix the pulled meat back in.

Best 'Stick-To-Your -Ribs' burrito filling this side of Burritoville.

Soft flour Tortillas, salsa, sour cream, shredded Jack Cheese and fixins will be ready.

I better go dig out my Crock Pot now ........... TTFN

I'll post the recipe for this at the Recipes Forum

Hey this is a celebration we don't worry about carbs, calories etc, they don't count when you are celebrating right?

So true when you are cyber eating at a cyber party.

Scoot, you better find that slow cooker now after that description. I wonder how many of us now are going to have slow cooked beef tacos tomorrow night for real! LOL

Ahhh, one by one, the Party Grows! Be some mighty good food here!

Yes 'M

Okay, my saki is ready (but I cannot find my small bottle to warm it, must be in a box somewhere), my traditional bamboo cup at the side, and sushi rolling mat at the ready...

So we are going to start drinking now? Sounds good to me!
CHEERS!

*hic*....just tasting.....er....I mean TESTING! Jo

I'm here for the sushi, Darius!

Good deal, Arlene! I'll be back here a little before 9 pm EST, goodies in hand!

Ick, no sushi or sushimi for me! How about leftover turkey?

Two meat thermometers because the little one was not registering right and Howie put the big one in to see what it said. Poor bird. Our electronic one bit the dust, so we had to be careful to keep an eye on the bird - no alarm! I said it looked like a funny face with two different sized eyes, and a little pouty mouth...."ohhhh, uhhhh, you're not going to eat me, are you?"

Okay, here's the biscotti.. who is making coffee or hot chocalate to dip them in?

Is that white chocolate? Yum!

I love your biscotti

GW, those are almonds, sorry. Orange-Almond biscotti.

Darius - I've got the Jingle Java brewing now! mmmmm.......those biscotti look deeeeeelicious!

OK is this the thread for the drawing and party or elsewhere? Is the chat going to be open instead?

I don't think anyone knows, and Mel's not here right now... So far as I know, it's here.

hi gang...Dave hasn't mentioned chat, but you never know...he'll be along before very long and we'll have an idea of how he's going to do this....till then...this is the party and...I'm assuming that this is the place to find out who gets the GA Quilt.

Looks like some scrumptious goodies so far...so settle in and get comfy...I'll be in and out for a little while....Keith still has guitar students and we haven't had supper....

Back later!

Oh, Pooh... I cannot find the container of pickled ginger I thought was in the refrigerator! HOW can I have sushi withou pickled ginger????

I made pickled eggs today...will that do?? No, I guess not...but boy! I do love them. Jo

You've got 20 minutes...I can just see stuff flying out of the fridge....

Shoe here...present and unaccountable! (er, sumpin like 'at)...
Permission to enter?

Got my soda handy....waiting for the countdown for the drawing...

Oh yeh...brought along some venison jerky too. Want some?

Would the color of your soda be blue???

Looks like the party is going strong. Lots of good food listed up there too.

Hehehe...of course it is, Mel! It's my favorite color!!

Howdy Mystic...just in time!
