Ok, the numbers are looking good for this event. Please post up here so we don't have all 40 or so people bringing potato salad. I mean sure it is good but we need some variety.

I am going to make my famous Corn Salsa. So I am also bringing tortilla chips.

The menu for food will be Dogs & Burgers provided by the club. We will have all the fixins for Chicago style dogs. Paper goods will also be take care of so this is not really something we need.

Questions, concerns, special requests? Let me know.

We can pick up some Garden Burgers and veggie dogs if anyone would like. I know that we have a few in the club that may like that. I made a mean veggie chili dog in Yosemite one time, sure it was cold but it was food.

 

Steve sent me a message that he is going to try another cake. If you have been to the Holiday party you may have seen and tasted his past cakes. They are REALLY good and the look like MINIs too. Not sure what the cake theme will be this time but make sure you get a piece!

He will also bring flavored corn chips.

 

we will be bringing some homemade pickles (slices)
great on a burger or just by themselves

 

I'm donating the Grill.

Now to make sure I have a full tank of gas...

 

Grill, who needs a grill, I thought we were cooking meat on the Super Charger Cooler?

 

Do you need an extra tank of propane? That can be my donation to the cause.

 

I would not want a tank of propane rolling around the boot while driving the route!!!

 

Propane tank does not fit in the boot of the cabrio.

 

Then I guess you are not bringing a tank. What will you be bringing?

 

Sorry, plain old cake this time.. nothing too fancy

 

Here is the list from CMMC, The goal is to keep things SIMPLE and EASY.

Classic --trying to attend but had some sorrow in the personal group as 2 Mom's died this week. This may be the perfect "offset" to the wake on Saturday. If I do I will bring "whatever I like" per the directions. I don't want to get in trouble by not following the rules. Whatever I decide, if I can attend will try to follow the KISS logic and compliment the menu. Thanks.
Doug.

 

I'll bring soda and some hot pretzels. Maybe I can strap them to the turbo to keep them hot. I've never been to one of these events before, but I'm looking forward to a good time.
