Ok, now that I am back from Spain and have caught up somewhat I can think about the gathering we were discussing. I think we were looking to have it at our house on Sunday the 23rd starting around 2 PM with me cooking something Caribbean, correct?

If so then here is the details:

Citrus Grilled shrimp
Grilled Jamaican Jerk pork roast
Black beans and rice
Fried Plantains

Everyone else is responsible for snacks, dessert and their beverage of choice.

I would need to know how many are coming by the 19th.

Spelling edit only.

Warning to all of you: be careful what you eat at Trav/Gae's. You just might wake up in that little room in the dungeon with the moon on the door and not get out for several days. [img]eek.gif[/img]

Hell I used to eat food at your place I didn't even think I liked. My guess is you gassed me as soon as I came in and I didn't know WTF I was doing the rest of the time I was there. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Surprise, surprise.

Gathering threads have been up for almost a month, and now Lew decides he's going to Virginia.

Coincidence? I think not.

Not quite Gae, Lew said he was going to be "in Virginia". Question is, does his fiance know about this, does she approve and who is Virginia?

Oh I dunno, if Craig ever lurks on here he just might show up now that he isn't on a leash anymore.

GL...I'm 42 and gravity is working it's best on me. YES it would be a cheap thrill! [img]wink.gif[/img]

Edited to add....I guess it would be better than sleeping with the dogs. [img]tongue.gif[/img] [img]wink.gif[/img]

Um, the fiancee will be on a cruise with her mom and sister in the Carribean. Hence, Big Daddy LewMan is off to see one of his lovely ladies in Virginia.

Of course, she happens to be my cousin, but I mean, hey now....

Trav,

D2 remembers Gae likes carrot cake and plans to bring one. Does she like Rasins and nuts, rasins only, nuts only, or neither?

Got that? [img]smile.gif[/img]

Without me being there it wasn't going to be much of a gathering no matter how many of you show up. [img]cool.gif[/img]

Whatever became of this?

Nobody is interested so instead of a gathering, it seems like its lunch/dinner for D2 and I with gae/Trav.

I thought more would be interested but apparently not.... [img]graemlins/thinking.gif[/img]

I sent Gail an email saying that I could be there, but Sluggo is chickening out due to cicadas... [img]graemlins/cry_smile.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/bat.gif[/img]

Jumper...will it pose a problem to your sensibilities if my snake loving children are there?

Well we all know how much I like children....so go ahead JDF....bring'em along. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I don't think Reason is yours to give to Jumper and even if he were I never heard him say he hates kids. Get a clue, woman.

I actually saw my very first cicada last night while I was grilling a flank steak, actually there were two. I would be much more concerned about the Kitchen ceiling falling down then a few bugs.

Mine, The leak in the bathroom last year, which casued us to compleatly gut it and put in a new one, caused some damage to the Kitchen below.

While I don't think it's really going to fall down, it does look bad, but the rehab of the 1st floor is not scheduled until 05.

Someone needs to tell me why I wanted to buy and rehabe an old house, because I don't remember.

Umm... because when I said the word "potential" you heard "burried treasure and secret stairways".

Trav,

honest to god...when our bathroom did the same thing, and we ripped the hole in our ceiling, we found a ruby ring. I still have it...I just haven't ever gotten around to getting it appraised.

Menu sounds good.
Have a great time.

Cant make it (again SHEESH!), but it does sound like it should be a good time.
