I made a nice bruschetta with gorgonzola melted on the toasted garlic bread topped with a roasted pepper (red, green. orange and yellow) and red onion mixture. A little balsamic and good olive oil and it was really yummy.

And Uly can serve some pomegranite margaritas!
Excellent suggestion!

Yum! Bruschetta. I'm starving.
I'll bring some guacamole. Prefab because it's better than what I make from scratch.

If you want a buffet thing going, I can contribute my mom's Sloppy Joes (flavored with ground clove- mmm) and her potato salad, which includes hard boiled egg and celery seed.
Also, her great fried chicken- simplest recipie in the world, none of us could ever get it as good as she did it. I miss my mom for a lot of reasons, but the fried chicken is near the top of the list.

I've added a mental note to try clove the next time I make Sloppy Joes. Thanks for mentioning this!
Also, as bad as it is for health reasons, I would love to learn to make a really good fried chicken!! I tend to bake and grill chicken. I've never mastered the technique for frying it with the crispy coating.

Today's special is...
Wasabi Crab Pinwheels:
I use the Wasabi Mayo from Trader Joes. The psuedo crab (surimi?), finely minced celery, and sliced of avocado and extremely thin tomato slices wraped in a herb tortilla (warm it first) and then sliced into about 5-6 pinwheels.
Anyone want to propose a new cocktail?

Her potato salad recipe sounds a lot like the way I make it. No real recipe, but it sure is good. I haven't made it in ages, though.

I had carrots and hummus earlier, and a big hunk of mozzarella with roasted red peppers.
Here's my drink choice:

It has a lot going for it, including Captain Morgan's rum and peach schnapps, and it is named for a cat.
(I told it to look for spiced rum since it did not recognize Captain Morgan's specifically.)

I'll bring a big ol' platter of Lemon Goodie Squares. They're my favorite, so I always volunteer to bring them.
What time do you start serving??

Yeah. PSM can give all the details. Unfortunately, I think I'll be in a city with no 7-11s on Friday.

We have a 7-11, but their parking lot's a mess because they just tore out their gas pumps....
I've hardly been in there since we got a Quik Trip. And now that one of my sisters works for them, I can carry out my hernia jugs full of Pepsi for free now (I'll be sure to send them the bill for my next stone).....
