You are here

New Yorkers/New Englanders! Let's Do It.

So, all y'all expressed interest in coming to my humble abode in Hartford for a vegweb shindig, of sorts. 

Let's plan, shall we?

Let me mention first off that Bostoners can come to Hartford via the Megabus for quite cheap.  Or carpool.  Albany peeps could carpool as well.  All of you in the Connecticut/New York/Massachusetts area are invited!

I am available these weekends:

January 30th
February 6th
February 13th (Valentines Weekend)
February 20th
March 7th

And beyond that, but let's stop right there for now. 

What say you, friends?  I am thinking a potluck with a theme.  If we do it around Valentine's (or even if not) we could totally do an ironic love theme.  Either way, I'm making cumcakes and penis/vagina cookies.  Because how often do you get to do that?

I have a lovely kitchen, a futon, and a decent amount of floor space, though we'd need some cushioning for the floor sleepers (wood floors).  You could stay the night or just come for the day.

Thoughts?  I want to do something that we all like.  We can have games, drinks, movies, presents, etc.

RSVPs
foofie - any time, especially Feb 15th
Cali - all but Jan 20th, 31st and Feb 20th
bp - coming whether she likes it or not  :-*
JW - all but Jan 30th
LA - prefers Feb 13th or March

What time is everyone arriving? It turns out that I can only stay there untill about 8/8:30  >:( and no drinking cause of that and....just boooo! is all I can say! At least I get to go for part of it. My date and i are dressing 80's cas, becasue he could not find something he liked for dressing up....humm...okay....what are people making? I'm planning on home made pasta something..... ???

Assuming an on time departure and minimal turbulence, estimated arrival for my car including algae, stillflat, celtkat, and celtkatguest is 3 PM.  I'm never going to get tired of these airplane references.

3 pm sounds great.  I welcome you all whenever on Saturday, but a little before dinner is super.  ;)b

There has been a change of plans and I, unfortunately, cannot make it due to personal reasons beyond my control! I am so so so so sorry that I will be missing this! Thanks again, Jamie, for offering to drive me! Maybe next time? To make up for this, I would be totally willing to host the next bash at my place! All are welcome! I was really looking forward to meeting everybody!

So are people actually wearing formal dresses? Are lots of people dressing casually? I still don't know what to wear  :-\

I'm wearing a formal-ish eighties ensemble I put together.  I'm ridiculously excited about it. 

You all can dress however.  But it will be more funnnnnn if you dress up......

I don't have any coolio things to wear!  But I'd hate to be the party pooper.  How about I come decked out in full ski gear, goggles and all  8)  Looking forward to seeing everyone's unique getups!

By the way for food I'm bringing Texas Trash with scoop chips and a broccoli with olive oil/thyme dish.  Both are good at room temp, no re-heating required.  And a 12 of Harpoon beer too.

Guys, let's aim for no earlier than 3, k?  I volunteered to teach Saturday school tomorrow and I need a small window of time.

I'll be in chat for the evening if any of y'all need me.  Just give it a beep so I can hear you.

Also, would anyone be willing to bring some maple syrup for pancakes?  I only have a small bottle.

Any food requests?  I have my seitan clams to bring but I dunno what else!  I was considering making a cake but is that too much dessert?

*ponders*

I made a pot pie and cookies. I need to shower, throw together an outfit, and get outta here! I am so so so excited. I keep saying this, I know. 

Um Cali, there is no such thing as too much dessert, in my opinion.  :)>>>

Ok, I guess I shall go downstairs and make a chocolate cake.  I think some strawberry goo in the middle should make it vegantine-y.

Hope I can finish before we need to leave. haha

I'm hoping I can finish in time  before we have to leave too!  *Runs around like a tofurkey with its head cut off*

My sweet outfit is complete though.  This should be a fun party, and BP and I getting to make a trip to WF and TJ's makes it that much better.
