I'll bring that lemon/strawberry cake again that I did last year and... I'll come back to edit what else I'll be bringing. Any requests? =)
Happy, thank you for being the food-thread monitor! :)
Yum and thank you, speediebean.
Okay, SallyG said she would try gizzards so I will make a batch of them with some rice. And of course some brownies.
I love gizzards! Gotcha down.
I'll bring a shrimp salad.
I love mis-reading things... at first, I coulda sworn that Ss said "I'm being a shrimp salad". ... can't wait 'til my new glasses are ready!
Y'all want me to bring the wings again too, like I did last year? The slightly-spicy BBQ wing "drumettes"? (Note: That will require space for the crock pot).
Do we need any paper products? If so, I can help with those.
I will be coming late, because we get out of church at 12. We probably won't get there till 1 or 1:30. So I can't bring drinks or appetizers or anything you guys will be relying on to start things. I see there are already some offers for desserts. Maybe I'll bring this hearty salad called "Layered Cornbread and Turkey Salad". It is SO awesome.

Speedie -- I'll put you down for the wings until you say otherwise....
typwc -- got you down for Layered Cornbread and Turkey Salad.
catmint -- yes, we'll need paper products -- lmk what you'd like to bring.

Perfect, thank you Happy! =) I'll keep my eye on this thread in case we come up short of anything.
Typ, Mmmmmmmmm, that layered cornbread turkey salad looks sooooooo good!!!
I'll bring three bean salad.
Got it -- thanks.
Happy, when you get a chance, please add to my list of stuff I'm bringing, "Mystery Appetizer/snack"? I'm not gonna tell y'all what it's called, but I bet everyone will enjoy it! < =D I just GOTTA try this recipe... but don't worry, I'll practice on DH first! =)
ooh the intrigue, the suspense!
Got it!
I can bring plates, cups, napkins, and forks. How many people are we expecting?
Robin
Catmint -- that's never precisely clear! But Sally has an ongoing list of "yeses" here: http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/p.php?pid=9616855 . You can always bring more than you think we'll need and keep the extras in your car -- return them if we don't use them. I can bring some too (assuming I'm coming). I have a bunch of extras of that sort in the basement....
Thanks happy!,
and all for the delicious offerings!
Yes I have room for a crock pot.
Catbird- we could use my rice cooker to make rice here, if that helps.
I'll make sweet and regular brewed teas. And food TBD later.
I think I have a ton of cups - those 16 ox Solo cups
Anybody with room for a card table, and your own lawn chair, is not a bad idea to bring.
Someone could bring some ice.
Thanks, Sally; I've updated the list.
I will bring dumplings.
Yum!
Ooooooh GOODIE!!!!
I *love* dumplings!!
I will bring my Potato Salad and my yummy Garlic/Dill pickles.
Seems the pickles have now become a "must"--
at least if PAUL is attending.......:o)
Gita
edited---also a bottle of wine....

Thanks Gita -- I second Paul -- your pickles are fabulous.
Gita, no MMMeatballs!?!? < ='(
Edited to say: Just as I hit "send" I realized what a horrible INGRATE I sounded like. YIKES, my apologies!!! I do agree, your pickles are wonderful!!!

My husband says forget the plants,he's coming for the food!!
he's figured it out already!
Oh, yeah, you will eat GOOD!!
Anyone need soda if I promise to arrive on time and not listen to the GPS taking me through DC?
I've got you down for soda!
Thank you for braving the DC traffic Chantell!
I'll keep an eye on the list and see what I can add... maybe greek pasta salad, if I can get to my oregano this week (have to prune it back before it blooms out if I want a fresh harvest for the swap), or maybe mmeatballs (after all, the recipe came from my BFF's neighbor in IL). Joyanna will want to bring something sweet, maybe cookies, although lately she's been all about cupcakes. Could even be krispie treats, LOL.
Hmm, sounds like you can put us down very non-specifically for "something sweet & something savory."
You've got it!
works for me! Not as if we've ever made somebody change their offering...lol
I'll be bringing Great Harvest Bread of course but undecided what else
I have tons of Lemon Balm but can't find my gallon jars for sun tea.
Sally, do you want to use the screened gazeebo again for our food tent? LMK
Coleup,I make sun tea every other day ,I can spare an extra gallon jar.
What is sun tea?
