And we have a winner!!!

I think it's pretty clear that the majority would like Thanksgiving to be on Thursday. I think we should shoot for dinner around 5pm since some of us will not arrive until noon on Thursday.

Accommodations will be at the fabulous Keno's Llama Ranch.




Attendees:

We also need an official head count. I sent out a potential list a few days ago of possible participants. Here's the new list with some additional details:

Carstens (4)
Alex and Jen
Adam and Laura
Bettina and Aaron
Lauren
Drew
Ian (and Molly?)

Klayton

Jana and Dustin

Sonderickers (5) ?


Supplies:

Brandy and I were discussing how we all brought everything and the kitchen sink last time, only to discover a fully stocked kitchen. We can prolly tone down on the supplies this year. I would like to request that the Carstens bring their fabulous mixer so I can make whip cream again.



Food:

Jana: Pecan pie, apple pie, whipped cream, fruit, tea, succotash

Dustin: Pumpkin pie

Retka: Megaloaf, stuffing, sweet potatoes

Lauren: Cranberry sauce, gluten-free peanut butter ch0colate cookies and pumpkin bread.


Carstens: Green bean casserole, Gluten-free muffins and cookies, (turkey?)

Jen: Wine. (Please pitch in for wine and Jen will purchase it. I'm all for tasty good wine this year.), zucchini casserole.

Alex: mincemeat pie?

Ian: mashed potatoes, turkey loaf

Your assignment:


1) Let us know for sure if you are coming. It would be nice to know by September 30th so we can decide about accommodations.

2) Vote in the poll.

3) Let us know what you are intending on cooking or bringing to eat.

4) Let us know what supplies you are bringing.

Please send your responses by posting to this blog or sending an email.

As I receive information I will add it to this post. This will be your one stop information center as the day approaches.
