Saturday's housefilk

[celticdragonfly]

For Saturday's housefilk - we'll be providing a couple of main dishes for the evening. I'll try to get lots of coke, too. If anyone else wants to bring side dishes, munchies, or dessert stuff, that would be excellent.

We do have one couple crashing at our place already. Especially given the weather, if anyone else would like to crash, let me know. We can rearrange the kids to clear out another bed, and there's a couple of couches available, or the proverbial sleeping bag. We have a couple, feel free to bring yours.

Yay! I have a recipe that Andy and I really like that I could prepare in advance, if we can throw it in the oven when we get there. It's a meat-and-potatoes pie that my best friend's mom offered up the recipe for. It's more a main dish than a side thing, though.

I don't know what ideas for side dishes or munchies or dessert stuff would be, but I'd be happy to try for some of that if it'd help!

Also, hate to change plans at the last minute, but Andy and I need to come back Monday daytime instead of Tuesday. We're preparing for a tournament next weekend, and we need to be back in time for our weekly lessons with our coach. That still okay?

Looking forward to it!!!!!! *hugs*

Sure, that's fine. We will be putting lasagna in the oven, hope yours can use the same temperature. And yeah, sure, if you need to go back Monday, hey, whatever you need.

Oooh, lots of coke! I'll bring the razor blades and little mirrors, ok?

Bad Joy. No doughnut.

Especially no powdered donuts.

If I say "soda pop" in this part of the country, people will laugh.

Aww. You don't want me to have *any* fun. ;(

Tell you what, you come to the housefilk, I'll get out the powdered sugar and you can do with it as you please. Just keep any razor blades out of reach of the children.

"If I say "soda pop" in this part of the country, people will laugh. "

Y'all can call 'em "soft drinks". Most folks'll understand.
Not your fault you're not from around here.

{goes back to engineering...}

Where I'm from, people call them cokes.

"You want a coke?" "Sure! I'll have a diet Dr. Pepper"

And somewhere a trademark attorney is screaming...

Doesn't it fall under "no publicity is bad publicity"?

"Where I'm from, people call them cokes."

Same thing works here. Just harrasing. Y'all are relatively new Texans after all. ;-)


Weather is looking worrisome for tomorrow. Still watching it. How much rain and when are the big questions at this point. Temperatures are currently forecast well below freezing tonight and Saturday night.

If there's much ice at all I probably won't make it to the filk. The Mustang doesn't handle well on ice. At all. If I do head that way I'll bring my sleeping bag and such in case the weather gets worse.

I'm planning to bake some bread tonight. I'll bring a couple of loaves along if travel is workable.

Come early Saturday if you're worried about the weather, before it gets to ice up - even if we're still cleaning up, we'll be glad to see people - and bring the sleeping bag. Sunday's high is 45, so the icy roads won't stay icy.

Bread, yay! Karl's halfway through my 2nd loaf from earlier this week, so I expect it will be gone, and I really don't have the time before then to do more myself.

I addressed this issue with my short-lived freshman English class. They didn't see the irony, but they learned to be a lot more specific and less colloquial in their essays.

Hah. Nothing so low-tech. I've got the free-base set-up primed, so don't worry. Even have the Richard Pryor CD connected to the fire alarm for extra irony.

Honey?

You frighten me....

1.) This is exceptionally bad taste. WELL DONE !!! :-)

2.) Will that work with Pepsi ?

[patgund.livejournal.com]

No, only Michael Jackson gets burned by Pepsi.......

[joyeuse13.livejournal.com]

Wow, you guys sure know how to throw a party.

[selenite.livejournal.com]

Only the best for filkers. :)
