Thanksgiving again (or, this is getting bigger than I expected!)

[blodeuedd]

So! Here's a revised list. Please comment (or text me, or something) to confirm and/or specify what you'll bring!

Me: stuffing, pie
nekonezumi: pie, cranberry sauce AND jelly (she is magical!), and also salad dressing
lizstarsky: mashed potatoes (and breasts? XD) emergency BREASTS, if no one else can find any fowl
llamachan: drinks (I vote red wine!)
dilettantka: "vegetables of some sort"
kurayamihimitsu + friend: drinks, maybe vegetables? last-minute stuff from the supermarket
later_uk: ?
genkischuldich + partner: ? bread, butter
hinoai: how's the search for meat coming along? ^_^
starrbeam: ? red wine, something dessert-ish
akahannah (possibly, maybe): alcohol

Re: vegetables, I guess corn, peas, carrots, etc. would be good, to those thinking of bringing that.

Re: drinks, we need red wine (cheap is fine) for the sangria, and whatever other alcohol people want (I have crème de cacao, so bring some milk and vodka and I will make white russians!), as well as tea, soft drinks and juice for those who want that.

We need:

- confirmed meat! Turkey, chicken, whatever, but it would be sad if the only meat to be had was what I'm putting in the stuffing.
- fruit for the sangria (I already have kabosu, but canned pineapples and mikan would be good)
- orange juice and tonic or some sort of fizzy stuff for the sangria
- bread and butter
- cheese? :D
- ice (I only have 2 small ice cube trays T___T)
- paper plates (I have one pack, but we'll need 2 more, probably)
- could a couple of people bring a large serving dish/bowl or two, or even cooking pots? I don't have very many and if Easter is anything to go by, we'll be short on those!
ETA - for the salad: dark-leaf lettuce, red onion, blue cheese crumbles, dried cherries, and walnuts (only half a cup each of the last three), but it works with any salad, really. If someone wants to pitch in those ingredients, that would be awesome, or else just a regular undressed salad

N.B. There is a supermarket right behind my apartment building, so you can get pretty much anything there, if you don't feel like hauling it all the way from your place.

Also:

What do you guys think of having some sort of theme? Apart from stuffing our faces, of course.

ETA: Tiffany has declared the theme to be BREASTS! XD

Discuss.

Let me know re: the meat situation, preferably on Saturday sometime. If they're needed, I can buy some BREASTS (has to be capitalized) and bake them in our toaster oven one by one, storing them neatly in tupperware until the shindig on Sunday. :P And even if I do this, I could still make mashed potatoes at your place afterwards, provided I was able to stop at the grocery store beforehand.

Okay! Stay tuned to this post to find out whether emergency BREASTS are needed, I guess. XD;

Check!

Also, I have word from Hannah - she's not sure yet whether she'll get her stuff done in time to join us, but if she does, she's going to try to come on Sunday. If she does, she says she will bring some additional alcohol. And possibly, in the spirit of Halloween, come dressed as a giant breast. Because that's the theme of the party, after all. :P

Aw...I was hoping the theme could be health and happiness and thankfulness for our family and friends. \\(T-T)//

[lizstarsky.livejournal.com]

Can't it be all of the above? Health and happiness and thankfulness and breasts?


Wow, I'm actually tired of talking about breasts now. :P New topic plz.

How about boobies? It's sort of different and not as PC.

[lizstarsky.livejournal.com]

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. I will consider it.

For now, however, I'm going to bed. :P

Night, Mr. Frodo.

Night, Kime!

And also a slang term for a stupid person. :D
