Spring 2010 FOOD THREAD
I will bring caramels, and a salad.
I will bring fresh fruit.
I will eat it!
I will bring milky way pies. They are made with a chocolate crumb crust and are really good! I can also bring some different soda and some ice.
Geo
Just a thought...and I certainly don't think we need it, but there is grill there if anyone wanted to bring charcoal, etc. We've always done fine without that, but if anyone would want it, it's available.
Ohhh my goodness, Geo! Sweetie Geo...lol...plzzzzzzzzz save me a piece of Milky Way Pie...since I won't be there for dinner!! That is my very favorite candy bar!
Marcy I will send you the recipe. It is so easy and good!
Geo
George, would you send me the recipe too? Also my favorite candy bar. Milky Way and 3 musketeers. Yum! The pie sounds easy and good!
Since I have to travel so far, I was wondering if I could bring plates, napkins etc? Something that would not need to be refrigerated etc? If I have a friend come with me, I could have him bring a bag of chips or something like that? I will have to leave so early in the morning that I won't have time to fix anything that day.
And, if Bob does come with me - he is a daylily friend, not a dating friend... just so there are no questions about that... LOL... he is not my type! But he is a good daylily friend!
If roadrunner is really coming, somebody BETTER have chocolate fudge. LOL
Sad to say it appears Jo won't be attending this Spring.
I just got done talking to her.
Maybe in the Fall.
Ric
Any requests? I do a lot of baking, and oddball ethnic foods :)
I'll bring a bread bowl filled with spinich dip and fresh veggies for dipping. I could assemble it there so it wouldn't be soggy from the plus 3 hour drive.
Any suggestions as to what else I could bring that would survive the long drive? Everything I can think of is best right out of the oven!
Maybe a cheesecake too? I could make it the day before and then freeze it, it would still be cold when we get there.
COUNTING THE DAYS!!!! YAY!!
Annie
for those long drive people - I am not going to be able to come. I was going to bring foil, plastic wrap and some ziplock baggies for people to divide up and wrap leftovers with. So, someone could bring that.... Joycet suggested it and I think it is a good idea....
That's a great idea, I'll bring some.
How about blondies? Are those okay with everyone?
Sounds Good Celene.
Robyn has a new recipe she wants to try.
I'll be bringing Keftedes as there is electric.
Plus some deserts of course.
I'll be bringing the propane stove also if any one needs to heat anything up.
Also tablecloths.
The weather is showing upper 80's for the RU.
Scattered T-Storms.
Well..all I see so far, are desserts and salads. I think we need some food food too...lol. What would everyone like me to bring??
Tell me!!
I'd like some bacon wrapped filets, shrimp and scallop kabobs, pasta salad, crab cakes, garlic bread...um....I don't care what you bring for everyone else. LOL
Actually the meatballs and Robyn's recipe are somewhat main dish.
LOL Chele!
I can bring deli ham, turkey, buns, pickles and olives. Is anyone bringing things like mustard, ketchup, mayo?
LOL Chele..you bad!!
Yeah Ric, I thought about that after I posted. Still we do need more 'real food' (no offence..I love desserts too!)
No...that all sounds good!
Well...if no one wants to tell me what to bring...I'll think of something...lol!!
We've got the Mayo, Mustard and Ketchup covered.
Courtesy of Toni!
Great! Then I will bring the other things I mentioned. Any idea of how many will be there?
Hmmm...food food. I could make Greek pasta salad, or rosemary roquefort potato salad?
Hmmmm we DO need to get a head count.
I'll start a thread.
Sounds good Celene...lol!!
I am bummed that I won't make another RU. GRRR.... but perhaps things will be better in the fall.
I need to unwatch these threads so I don't know what I am missing out on!
daylily_ohio,
If you see anything on my list that you want, just let me know and I can set some aside for you. I'm close enough to you that you could come pick them up. The dahlias are already at joycet's though.
Candy
Candy, I appreciate that... but I am cutting down my gardens. I had some things to give people, but I don't think I have ever brought any plants back home with me. I used to have a huge garden, but can no longer care for it.
I can relate! I never thought I would want to garden less but now.... Of course, I don't want fewer plants; in fact, I want more property with more plants. I just want to be able to pay someone else to do all the work. Come on, Powerball!
I will be bringing chicken from the Dairy Queen...
Chicken and rolls.. It usually is very good...
I don't make anything fancy, like to eat it though. lol
Have to think of something else.
Pauletta
I am bringing baked beans, and chicken too! Will that be too much chicken? If so...I can think of something else.
Do you guys want rosemary gorgonzola potato salad or greek pasta salad? You have to help me pick, I don't know what goes with meat, I haven't eaten meat since Nixon was in office.
Marcy, you can't have too much chicken, IMHO
it is like having too much money. lol,
Pauletta
I vote for the potato salad...but either sounds really good!
And being Greek Cookie and I vote for....lol!
greek pasta salad sounds mighty good.
DH votes Greek pasta salad, too.
Wrong...I vote for the potato salad....love gorgonzola.
