Ummmm I dont get it. You need 3 of each 'food group'? I am sorry, the rain is making my brain soggy.

Re: Food for 12.11 GTG

Hmm, I can make several things. Remember I like to cook so I could bring an entire I-hop if you really wanted...lol!

I am going to make the following:
-apple pie
-meat lasagna

I hope this is okay.

BTW..someone should make spreadsheet of who's coming and what they are bringing. This way people don't bring the same thing.
