Gee, I was going to bring the best chocolate dessert in the whole world (and no I'm not kidding about that!), but I guess you have enough desserts already... How about a chicken/grape/walnut curry salad then?

That gives us a total of 15 + Chocolate and crew. If I can add, that is.

Boys might be staying home with dad. The Wild is on. It might be me and daughter. I may not know until Friday for sure. Will this make a big difference to anybody?

Does anyone have a beverage preferance?

I know Chocolate said something about wine in a prior post. She told me she is not big on pop, what about anyone else? The only things I can think of is pop, Fruit drinks, like Capri, the little box drinks (you can tell I have kids), what else is there?

Kids drink juice boxes and pop. I'm sure whatever you bring will be fine. I'll probably bring a bottle of some kind of red wine.

I will try and leave some for you guys tomorrow! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

We throw out numerous cries for help ( to eat the food and to entertain the crowd ) <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" /> the man replies once, mildly curious and for weeks there is no answer. From that we can deduce that either A) the man is dead or B) the man has no interest in partager notre petite soiree. Since we see the gentelman pop up on other thread here and there we can only deduce that B and not A is correct. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />
