July Wash-in

[perc-o-prince]

What was cooking in the big outdoor pot? Crawfish?

Lobsters (lobstah for you, Rayjay!)!!! Gary has pics, and a plan for posting, or so I'm told by a little greenie birdie, so stay tuned!!!

And just remember, it's all the people who come who make it a success! Hosting is fun and Rich and I enjoy it VERY much, but it's no fun if there's nobody else there!!!

Thanks again for everyone's help and extra efforts!!! But Bobby, I just can't believe poor, not-so-dead, Carol Merrill stood us up. That bi*ch!! She was supposed to flair the Yankee Swap gifts!!! Maybe next time!

One for Skip

Hey Chuck My God Yours looks 10 times better then the jambalaya
We have here and I know most probably has a lot better taste as well. Chuch You have to be an awsome cook because now that think about It Your Jambalaya looks even better then the ones in the recipe books. Next time I'm on the phone with Evan I will make sure to ask him how he enjoyed Your jambalaya.
Thanks for the picture, it's awsome looking for sure. Boy I know I missed some good eating.

looks good enough to eat. You can tell from the pics that you guys had a ball.

How nice!

Is Greg as wild and crazy and fun as he seems--wet or dry ? ;-D

Is Greg as wild and crazy and fun as he seems--wet or dry ?

Inquiring minds want to know...and Yes....he is just as wild and crazy 'both ways'....LOL~!

We had one of the best weekends ever. We all felt as if we knew each other for a long time and were saddened to leave.

Here he is at one of his calmer moments.....Yeah...being served.....ut oh.....

 

[skip]

Well it looks like Gary had the time of his life serving Greg.
Which isn't a bad thing at all. LOL

Skip...

 

[perc-o-prince]

Hey Skip, thanks so much!! I'm sorry I didn't take a pic of the cornbread we served with it for you too!

mickeyd, I'm from Buffalo and Cheektowaga originally. Frank's is the best! I buy it by the gallon at BJ's. I mention it because we served it on the side with the Jambalaya (and the chicken, the hot dogs... you get it!).

[mickeyd]

Sorry guys, no disrespect intended

The Subject Drift got cut off. It WAS: "That Jambayla" looks good enough to eat.

Perc-0, How did you know, you smart former Buffalonian?

 

[appnut]

Gary, that pic of Greg looks just like he did, same pose near table, at the 2002 Convention on BobofHollywood's patio.

 

[perc-o-prince]

WHEW!!!

I just want to reply to all of you who thanked Chuck and I for the great time....It is us who would like to thank all of you for making the effort to travel out here. I still am tickled by how wonderful you all are!

The time just seemed to pass in a flash and now it's over. We still have lots to remember you all by....leftover FOOD!!!The food was DELICIOUS!!! If we eat it all we'll be 400lbs each for the nextwash-in (which may be a soon as September if there is enough interest!)

Gansky1 asked "where did you find that sink??"

This sink is in my parents house. It's the one that they chose when the kitchen was built in the late 60s-early 70s. It's an American Standard if my memory serves me correctly.

We both look forward to seeing everyone again very soon and would love to meet even more of you!!! Start thinking September (we'll post more about this as we know more) I look forward to seeing more pictures posted of the wash-in. Gary?, Ray? Greg M?.... We will post some pictures of some of the Brimfield finds in the next day or so.

Thanks for the wonderful memories!!!
