Cleaning Up
Well, that was a load of fun.
Thanks for coming to the potluck and making it such a superfantastic event. The food was excellent, we had enough for everyone and I even have a few bottles of wine left over. No beer, though ((JP). I had the last of Nicole's apple tart for breakfast. Yum. (OK, I confess. I hid away a slice just for that purpose. You people are ravening beasts).
I also want to give a shout out to Sling for staying after to help clean up. You're such a gentleman. And thanks to The Hat and Red for policing the butts after all the "not smoking". If there's one thing I hate it's sodden faux ciggie bits in the lawn. And it's raining today.
I've got to run the crockpot back over to Alice but I just wanted to say, in all seriousness, I totally knew that virtual potluck idea would work. You are a very fun, creative bunch of people and it's a frakking honor to know you. I mean it. I think we proved two things: 1) you don't need microgreens to have a swell party and b) cheese rules.
We're so doing this again next month.
FYI: there's a "Hello Kitty" fanny pack and a NASCAR cap in the Lost and Found. Oh, and Rosemary, I think I have one of your hamsters. How he got into the bread box I do not know.

Okay, this is going to sound so bonkers, but I actually feel like I went to a party last night with all y'all. THAT'S how fun it was! (discreetly grabs Hello Kitty bag and stuffs it under hat)
You just THINK there's no beer left over. I had a secret stash too. [reaches into Angela's hat] See? Beer.
I am so sorry about Hammie...he was tinking he was going to get a free PB&J. No little black things anywhere are there?
TINKING????
I feel the same way, Hat. And I knew that Hello Kitty bag was yours. No need to be discreet.
That's my boy. Now hand me one of those and while you're here, help me move the couch back. How did it get on the deck, btw?
Tinking is my new favorite word, Rosemary. As for Hammie, he was just hiding from The Cat, I expect, and he was, ahem, very tidy. No worries.
That was the MOST fun potluck ever! And I didn't gain a single pound, despite the fact that I made a total pig of myself, eating double portions of everything everyone brought. And I must confess, I snagged a piece of that amazing Better than Sex cake to take home with me for lunch today. I'm still licking the frosting off my fingers.
Thanks tons, Lorraine, for suggesting it, and everyone else for your contributions!
That's the beauty of a virtual potluck, Gina. No calories, no second hand (or first hand) smoke, no hang-over. Oh, and did you leave this serving spoon?
So, THAT'S where that darned spoon went! I'll get it next time - unless you want to drop over for a cuppa this weekend and bring it with.
A cuppa this weekend it is.
Thanks for bringing back my crockpot, Lorraine. I'm always losing that thing. Maybe I had a bit too much of that Boone's Farm last night, cause work was a real drag today.
Thanks for hosting a spectacular party.
Remember the potlucks at the Baptist church? At least five old ladies would bring the red Jell-o with the fruit cocktail in it with marshmallows on top. I'm so glad there was none of that at YOUR potluck. It truly rocked.
Happy to do it, Alice. And I'm glad you had a nice time. By the way, that medley of Rogers & Hart tunes you did perched on the coffee table? Epic.
J: I was hoping Grish would show up with his Jell-o shooters. Not THAT'S an appropriate use of gelatin. Maybe next time.
That was the most fun EVER lorraine!
I ate like a pig,and got totally hammered with JP,drinking beers from a huge hat.
I guess the only bad part was when I got home.
I finally got all snuggled in,warm and cozy,and the toilet seat came down and hit me in the back of the head..
Dude, I HATE when that happens!
you and your friends are so cool Aunite Raine.
Pretty cool. But not as cool as you, Mols. Mean it.
So I guess you didn't mind the raisins I put in the apple tart. HEE HEE HEE.
Damn. Late to the party again. Story of my life.
I could've used a piece of that cake, too...
Nic: You thought you were so clever. I picked them out and made a tidy little pile on my plate. And then Gina ate them.
Cowbell: Don't despair, we're going to do it again. And your luck may be changing. Looky what I had sitting up on the fridge, hiding behind The Child's lunch box. Want some coffee with that?
Score!! It's my birthday, it's my birthday, Ima party like it's my birthday..." Ohmygod, this IS better than sex...
OK, some sex.
best party ever--is JP okay? I cant sign on to his site-- oh cowbell-- was that about my cake :)
I am SO making that Better Than Sex cake for The Ski Bum Daughter's 25th birthday party next week.
Since we're pretending it's your birthday, CB, you can have the NASCAR cap that no one has claimed. You're welcome.
Yes, Mouse, it's your cake. Kendall's was gone by the time you brought yours. (Did I mention that you people are ravening beasts). And something must be hinky with your browser...JP is there.
The NASCAR cap? Well, I ... (smiling brightly) don't know what to say. Oh, I couldn't possibly accept! You're too kind!
