well, if people are wanting to bring stuff on Monday night and don't know where to go, etc., I'll be going to Trader Joes (and Whole Foods) over the weekend and if instead of bringing something, you wanted to pitch in for that and I could get some extra Sharfennberger, for example, or go to a Kosher bakery and get a pie, that would be fine too.
NOTE: This is *not* a plea for cash for the Kosher party run, just an option if you want to contribute and the Kosher laws make it a bit challenging. But no one has to contribute anything. Er.
this post brought to you by an under-caffienated person who has guilt about money issues, no matter how slight. Please read said post knowing everything's, as the kids say, "cool."
The other thing with dessert for Nilly at the BBQ is, what is she being
served as the main course? If it's meat, she won't be able to eat a
dairy dessert for a good bit of time(depending on how she follows kashrut, it can range from 1 to 6 hours after the meat course).
Just FYI.
Oy veys mire....(I just know I screwed up that spelling.)
We'll do what we can. I bought four varieties of beans and green lentils last night, in prep for making a huge pot of soup (in the never-used stockpot!); all the packages are stamped with the (U) symbol, which certifies said product as being approved as kosher by the Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations. So that's a start.
I want it to be 5:15 already.
JZ - I absolutely want a shirt. Alas, I have serious computer issues and no mail at the moment. Stupid lightning.
Blame the double post on Charley
Laura, you don't have to evacuate, do you?
Charley is hitting exactly where my family lives. Mom's house is shuttered and she is in NY. My sister is with me. My brother and his children went to Naples. They all live in Bonita Springs, right between Fort Myers and Naples, or in other words, where the map shows the eye of the storm.
Oh, I am right along the east shore, we just have lots of wind and some serious rain bands.
Good to hear from you Laura. I was thinking about you this morning and wondering if you were in Charley's path.
