    Woman yelling at guy attempting to steal her cheese tots... "Man, those nacho taters!"

    OK PEOPLE- can I get a basic rollcall on who is actually coming and what they are considering bringing, food wise? This way I can tell people to not bring specific things (IE how many bags or tortilla chips are really necessary?)

    Me- Fried Chicken, shitty tequila and marg mix

    I'll be there. I can bring wine or champs and mexican sweet tea vodka. Still undecided about what food to bring but I will try and make it unique enough that it's not a dupe. I'll let you know when I figure it out.

    Holy shit. Yes.



    Also- Mama, is Papi bringing totcho ingredients? If not, I can assign to someone for him to assemble...

    No totchos = no Mougar, so someone better bring it.

    Now that we've covered food, I'm curious as to what would be the appropriate attire would be at this event.

    ...big hats are an Easter tradition.

    You got it, toots.

    MeredithB, will you come with your harem of woman like at the Slope pub crawl :wink: :P

    Speaking of the Slope pub crawl (for which I was out of town)........... another bar crawl seem imminent! What about those three spots on 3rd ave. -- Bar Tano, Beer something and Bell House? That could be fun! More fun than Carni's meatstravaganza-- at least for me.

    I posted this on fbook, but for those who don't use, heres the food list thus far:

    "Me/eric: fried chicken of some sort, an app, large bottle of bad tequila and shitty marg mix
    Mami/papi: Home-made salsa, booze, chips
    Meredith: ricotta cheesecake (nom!)
    Voodoo: Pork product of some kind
    Mougar: Limes and I'm assigning you totchos!
    Cho: some sort of chinese fuds (dumplings?)"

    According to my estimation via facebook, people who usually flake and people who will be bringing guest I imagine about 15 people (more or less) so plan fuds accordingly!

    I've never actually made totchos before, but I'll figure something out. It's mostly just cheese and tots so it can't really be bad.

    Where around here has crown tops?

    Dude - how hard could it be Mougar? WTF figure it out. Slap some crap into a pan, throw on a few gallons of cheese and jalapenises, and you're golden.
