Awww are you SURE you can't come? I might have a friend coming up from Windsor, of all places! It's not TOO FAR!


And yes, Nougat, bacon is still needed. Go get it. And ketchup.

It isn't a matter of too far, I drive to Boston all the bloody time.

Like I said, I'll be in the woods at a VW show that morning. I can't skip it either because I'm desperately looking for some pieces to get my bug back on the road. From the show to Boston is 2 hours+, so I wouldn't get to Boston until mid-afternoon at the *earliest*.

Oh yes, I forgot. You did mention that. Ah well, Next Time! And perhaps, Hartford in a Week! (still working out details. I may be forced to get plastered at work that evening. We shall see.)

Also I suppose I will have to bring real maple syrup.

Or alternately I am an idiot and the show is on Sunday, leaving me free on Sat.

So now I'm planning to come up. I have the address from Noug, but you never stated a time. I'm going to shoot for 11am, but call me if you want me to arrive later.

@22/7: No, no. Somerville is where it's at. Actaually, it's where we are at, mostly (me, Meaux, Creemy, Cat and co.)

I'll take a stab at making homefries. You already bought potatoes though, so... Hum. I'll bring some more fruit and vegetable stuff and juice. And: do you have a griddle pan or plate? Because I can bring one of the kind that fits over two burners. I think I'll bring it just in case.

Meaux took a bunch, I'm guessing the more incriminating ones will end up on here eventually.

Yes, your french toast was THE SHIT, as was Bakey's homefries. I definitely did the least cooking, but the most taking of pictures! There's some in the picture thread.

Sorry, never intended to imply they did all the cooking, just that they were the ones throwing the brunch. There was tasty food all around.

Wow, I'm really sad I missed that cake night, that looks delicious!

Part of me really wishes Cake Night weren't Mondays, cause I'm always exhausted and trying to recover from my weekends.

Cake Night has always been Mondays. I don't control it, it's an omnipresent state of being to whose parameters I have no choice but to conform.

Well, I have considered changing nights. The problem is that the schedule for the rest of my life has become pretty fixed around having Monday nights free, so now it would be hard to change. When I move house I'll give it some more thought.

If anyone wants to do veggie chilli tonight, we need a chilli pot, because my housemate has been using it to soak his feet, and a place. We can do it at my place if you want to, but I warn you it ain't all pretty.

Not YET. But I can get one.

I'm not going to lie... I'm feeling really anti-social today so if I hide in my room please don't take it personally. I've overextended myself and had a lot of caffeine, I just might crash.

But before I crash I'll bring home a chili pot. And probably some beer.

Chilli was succesful, if over spiced. I have a real problem with cooking chilli, because I always loose my ability to taste the spices after standing over the pot, cooking it. There is a fuck-ton of garlic in it, and the red onion was unusual.

Aw, dude, I can't do 5:45 to save my life. I have major retarded work BS to do.

What sort of stuff do you need? I might actually have a lot of it at home, considering we went shopping recently and have several garden-reaped benefits.

I can meet up with you then but I might have to get some stuff together and hop a train to Rhode Island tonight. So I'll be glad to shop with you but joining the festivities may not be doable.
