Of the food? I could personally send you a sample of it afterwards.

A good idea since I got ditched last time for this and totally missed out.

Our Basic Menu for the Weekend

Friday - You are on your own

Saturday
Breakfast - On your own / hosts responsiblity to feed their guests! ;)
Lunch: Burgers and Hot Dogs
Dinner: Spedies (Hoping Trog will be in town by this point)

Sunday
Breakfast - On your own / hosts responsiblity to feed their guests! ;)
Lunch: Burgers and Hot Dogs (we are going to have a shitload of these!)
Dinner: Chinese Buffet

Monday
Breakfast - Tradtional Diner Invasion (The Park Diner for the locals)

Tuesday
You better NOT still be around on Tuesday!

Jp and I are getting the chicken, burgers and hot dogs, along with the bread and all that stuff. I'm trolling now the local population to see if folks can donate things like pasta salad, baked beans, potato salade, bbq items. It would go a long way to fill out the stock if some folks could make some items like this and donate them to the food fund. I know Joni makes a killer pasta salad, and we make a good macaroni salad.

If you can help out, post here or PM me so I can you to the list.

Snacks: We'll have some soda and snacks on hand too, but if there is something special you can't be without, you better bring it yourself just in case.

I could ask what people like for snacks and soda but I'd then have 13 different options so you get what I get! :)

So far it's looking like a lot of the people I was hoping to see won't be at the anniversary party I'm going to. My hope is that I can make an early appearance, see the happy couple and the few people I do actually want to see (most are local friends I don't know), and ditch out a bit early.

It's 3 hours driving, so I fear getting there before 10ish would be impossible. My good faith estimate is 11.

I reiterate, cold spiedies are just fine if that's my only option!

Also, if you need me to pick up snacks or drinks, I can do that.

What is all of this going to cost per person?

I will throw in a potato salad and a pasta salad for the weekend.

Thanks Joni, I was hoping you'd say that. Your pasta salad is always so yummy.

I'm unsure of the total cost right now but we are buying burgers and hot dog in bulk from my job. Burger costs .49 cents and a dog .21 cents so it shouldn't be much. Whatever folks can contribute back to JP (he insists on paying for it all!) would be awesome. I'll have a better price once we sort out the spedies and things. And if you are bringing salads I'm sure we can cut you a nice discount :) But that husband of yours, it's going to cost him double! I've seen him eat ;)

did we ever look into if we could actually secure a soda machine for the weekend? I remember you saying you could get the syrup super cheap and bren saying he might know someone with a machine..

Or possibly, that was a dream I was having.

I twas not a dream, but I never heard from Bren about it. I think we need more than the syrup however, we need the carbon tanks and all that too. Probably not worth it in the end, unless the guy he knows has all that stuff.
