1. I'd love to

I'd be more than willing to host :-) (I'd even have some non-veggie items for you meat eaters!)

5. You would?

I would too,but my apartment is really small(do have a fireplace ,though:)I certainly think everybody would be willing to contribute some goodies,wherever it is.

7. That sounds great!

Edited on Sun Nov-16-03 05:36 PM by SiobhanClancy

TWO fireplaces? I feel bereft now(have been looking for a reason to use the word "bereft") I think we could make it happen..I'll be happy to help with the oraganisation,setting up,whatever(of course). Your place sounds great! We could get people to bring whatever(cheese,cookies,whatever they are good at or want to contribute)

btw,sean(stoptheinsanity)has already signed on as one of the cookie bakers.

(any night as long as it's not the night of Dec. 13th is alright for me, I"m having a christmas party, and you're all invited anyways:)

24. Definitely interested if it's during the week

My weekends fill up quickly with family and other social crap during the Christmas season. I'd love to see everyone! Should we make a pot luck dinner or snacks and drinks? I'm a wicked good cook! :-)

Given how busy we all are at the holidays, can I suggest a post-holiday party?

36. How about Tuesday, Dec. 16th or Wednesday the 17th?

if that would work better for everyone. I like the January party idea too, but then we have more to worry about weather cancellations in Jan.

37. Most any day is OK with me....

but Curse10 has said that she prefers it after the 17th,because of her classes. A January party is fine with me,too...I'm so agreeable I make myself sick:)Hopefully we'll have a consensus soon,so we can start making some definite plans. Maybe more people will be interested if it is after the holidays,and it might be a good thing to think about.

It's possible I could come down depending on a bunch of things, weather being one of them. :)

40. I've missed all of the gatherings!

I'll be there! Whenever. And I'll make some of my famous (thanks to DU) Lasagna and some tomato-chedder pies. Just say when and where and how many folks. Oh, and I also have a great salad that I could make. :-)
