I can bring another pudding. Does note above mean I should bring fruit salad? Happy to bring a few chocolate truffles too....

Kewcumber · 15/01/2012 20:25

There'll be quite a bit of fruit on the pavlova tto so why not grapes and apples that can be eaten with some cheese for those without a sweet tooth.

Sushi - could you bring cheese maybe?

too distracted never mind

sfxmum · 15/01/2012 20:50

ok, not sure how much time I will have either as we are likely to be out for most of Saturday as well and I will be out for much of Friday too as well as going out in the evening, will have a think
I can bring wine too

Kewcumber · 15/01/2012 20:54

how about leaves and cold meat (eg preroasted chicken)?

Or you and sushi can argue over cheese or chicken?

sfxmum · 15/01/2012 21:51

sfxmum · 15/01/2012 22:09

How about sausage bean cassoulet?

Kewcumber · 15/01/2012 23:05

Nah, make sfx retype her post again - serves her right for blurring the real/mumsnet life!

all my life is imaginary with assorted variation
particularly this weekend I seriously thought I was loosing my marbles at least twice
once when I left the house at the time dd's music lesson was due to start instead of the normal half hr earlier to actually allow us to get to the lessonBlush Sad then I cried for at least an hour while dd looked puzzled Blush

then later in town answer dh when was about to cross the street, he was carrying dd on his back, looked back and he was not there Confused

on the plus side got 72% on my latest essay which had been a last minute slap dash affair I even emailed the tutor to apologise

I will just get my coat

SushiMummy · 16/01/2012 07:43

Hi everyone!

sfx - you OK? Maybe it's the totm? Never mind, we all do silly things sometimes...

So I'll bring cheese? I might try the French cheese van parked in Homebase car park. Or chicken? What sort of chicken??? Confused

sfxmum · 16/01/2012 09:03

yes Sushi of course, it is only strange because I never have such lapses but it was a stressful week I guess it was steam blowing

maybe I can manage some sticky chicken drumsticks, more portable

sfxmum · 16/01/2012 09:03

and a salad

vbus · 16/01/2012 10:02

Sfx - go and have a lie down Grin

Sushi - just bring cheese and crackers

Can someone else bring pre-roasted chicken/drumsticks, maybe Tilly/Indy?

So far we have
starters
vbus - samosas
Island -tomato/garlic puff pastry starter

3 mains to share + 1 salad dish
sfx -sausage bean cassoulet
Copper - 5-spice sesame beef + eggs (Not as odd as it sounds, I promise.)

sfx - leafy salad
Kew - bread
chicken??

2 Desserts

Am so behind Blush. What can I bring? Can bring a roast chicken or another starter. And what's happening re lifts? I can drive and give people a lift, or if anyone is already coming my way who doesn't mind...

Tilly - another main course would be best. You can bring a roast chicken but but as Sfx has already baggysied chicken might be an idea to bring something else?

Island and Kew are driving so you could co-ordinate lifts with them Smile

Kewcumber · 23/01/2012 14:50

Steppie would like to come too and needs a lift - so if I take her and sushi could Tilly/Island arrange to pick up Kora and sfx? have grouped them together as they live so close.

I will co-ordinate with Steppie but assume she will bring something veggie.

sfxmum · 24/01/2012 00:43

Seems sorted maybe Tilly Copper?
Will get in touch with island
