Then it is good that I plan on bringing homemade candy with me.  Two kinds, possibly.

How about marshmallowy, chocolatey candy?

I love marsmallowy, chocolatey stuff!  I propose truce with Chiro over this stuff!

The fan dinner will be Saturday night at 5:30 at Sal's.  RSVP in this thread to be included in the fun!

Hi, Pris,

Can you add +1 (Lauraileen) to the Fan Dinner--a friend of mine who's just started getting into DF (about halfway through the books)...has booked a room and wants to come to the Fan Dinner.  Thanks!

Don't forget soy sauce, pickled ginger, japanese horseradish & rice...and FRESH bait only, please.  OR, oysters & clams on the half shell w/cocktail sauce, or steak tartare w/shallots, capers, or caviar w/blini & sour cream...while we're on the subject of raw food...  ;D

Hey, Hearts? We're kinda gonna need you to pick a smaller avatar - 100x100 is an acceptable size. Sorry. Now back to your regularly scheduled madcapitude.
