Wash-in Holiday Party in Mass!

[perc-o-prince]

Hey there,

 

The original post for this was in the Super forum (?) and has been archived- I wasn't watching it in time to bump it up with everything that's been going on. Here's the original post:

 

Saturday, January 5th, Southborough Massachusetts. More info to follow, but for sure it'll be a good time! Plan on a Yankee Swap!! So far, we're looking at about a 2pm start time, pot-luck finger food, BYOB, some space available here for sleep-over (reserve early!)...  Who's in??

We heard from Ron (kenmore58- 1), Jason (maytag63- 2-3), Scott (super32- 2), and a suggestion from Tim (polkanut) that we have the adoption table again.

 

Anyone else up for it?

 

[brianl]

We're there!

Count Me & Matt in! Reservation for 2 to sleep over please.

 

[cleanteamofny]

I will attempt as long as snow does not fall!
Possible sleep over if job timing permits.

 

[bajaespuma]

Do you even have to ask? Get that pool warmed up.

 

[bendixmark]

Count me in.Warm up the pool for me too and i want to see the tvs

 

[jetcone]

I should be

back from Omaha by then weather permitting, count me in.

Heard from both Mary Jane and Carol... they'll be here!

 

[super32]

Lets get the menu going......

 

[perc-o-prince]

OK, Scott. What cha thinkin'? Tidbits and finger foods have been requested so there aren't bowls, carving stations, etc. needed. Plus, anything eaten off a toothpick doesn't have calories!

Of course Rich will have cider mulling, coffee perking, and we'll have a few bottles of wine here.

I'll probably make some biscotti- good for dipping in any of the above liquids! Haven't decided what else yet, though I'm leaning toward a gorgonzola spread for crackers or something like that...

I will have to think. Something fingery, fun, and satisfying.

Chuck,

Even though I'll only be with you all in spirit, your cheese fondue at the last holiday party was outstanding.  Food for thought. lol  Could you post the recipe please?  Knowing you, you probably don't have one!

dishwasher racks

I have a nice set of kds 18 racks if that would fit your dishwasher.You had a thread for the racks but I think the thread broke.

 

[perc-o-prince]

Knowing you, you probably don't have one!

Hey Tim,

Actually, Rich made the fondue, and, yes, there was no real recipe (good guess!). However, here's what it was:

Make a loose butter/flour roux in a heavy-bottomed pot. Add some chardonnay then milk until you have a soupy sauce that will thicken with the addition of cheese. Stir in grated gruyere and fontina with a dash of nutmeg. If you need to thin it, use a little more milk. Substitute the cheeses of your choice.

Hope that helps!!!

Chuck

p.s.- Mark- please check your email...

Hi Rich and Chuck

Thanks for the invite, but I will be at Dad's in New Jersey.

If anything changes, I'll let you know and be there.
