Is any of the food going to need those gas warmer/burner things under the tray? My meatballs are fine at room temp, but I think I might need one of those since they will get cold on the ride over. Will we have room for those, Doodles?



if not, can we heat them in the over? just to warm them up?



Sure! That would be good. I wonder how many others will need to use her oven though?



Yikers - Donna I need to use the oven too! Please let me know if thats okay. If not, I can think of something else to bring..

Ladies,

I live in Franklin Square right near the Sandcastle. Anyone needing directions and address can FM me or email me at [email protected]. We still have plenty of time to get that all sqared away. There does seem to be a whole bunch of food being made and you are all more than welcome to use my oven for reheating.

I would also like to request that some of you bring a serving utensil for each dish as I won't have a sufficient supply until I have my bridal shower!

After reading this thread I am totally PSYCHED! You girls are too funny! I definitely have to insist that wine is at this GTG even if mirrors, cameras and camcorders are included!

I also wanted to add that sugar free cheesecake is NOT fat free so dont thank me too much.

And as far as decorations, is there a theme or theme color???

Sorry I have not mentioned any drink. Don't know if I can make it there yet. Most likely can. Anyway, I am thinking something alchole related, either wine, champagn, or a punch.

Any suggestions. Does any one know of a good but inexpensive champagne???

Oh, has anyone thought of bringing eggnog?

I can make apple crisp unless you think there are already enough desserts? Let me know if you want me to come up with something different.
