GTG - Saturday, April 28, 2007 @ Betsy's House (You're all more than welcome to bring your wedding albums/videos/etc to show off and share!)

Original post by ewickens

I'll take initiative here, since well, I would be honored to throw a GTG at our new home to spend an afternoon and evening with my lovely ladies.

So, I was thinking a weekend b/c we'd have more time to sit around and talk without having to worry about costs (for those of us who are new homeowner's or in the process of buying) or being kicked out of a restaurant for staying late.

So, what works for all of you?

Oh, I guess I should add that I live in Port Jefferson Station close to Rte 347.

Okay, so based on people's responses, let's make it Saturday, April 28, 2007. Let's make the party start around 4pm and if people want to come later, they can, since I'm sure we'll be around ALL night!

So, who's definitely coming and what are you bringing to share?

PS 1: It's okay to bring wedding albums, videos, etc, since I know more of us may have that stuff come the end of April.

PS 2: Send me an FM if you're coming, so I can send you directions.

Re: GTG - Saturday, April 28, 2007 @ Betsy's House

I have tons of paper plates, napkins, no plastic silverware, though.

I have 2 2-liters of Pepsi and 1 2-liter of Sprite, plus brita water, 2-3 bottles of red wine (none are identical).

I will be buying the Hormel cheese platter, cherries and making the brownie-coconut dessert as requested.

So, basically, I need:
1. utensils - this way we don't have to worry about dishes.
2. Anyone who wants diet soda, and we may need some more ginger ale or sprite for mix drinks, including Shirley Temples
3. Any other desserts besides mine
4. Maybe italian bread/french bread to eat with Jaime's ziti
5. What else am I missing?

I'll do my best...tomorrow I'll find out what time the reservation is. I just don't want to have dinner & then cut out (I'll never hear the end of it).

Hopefully it'll be early.
