I vote for a dinner potluck, skip the breakfast potluck.
Dieter-what do you mean by the "feast"?:confused:

[dkutz]

just have to roll me away from the table....ha ha.  We should just plan it wo we have main dish dessert and sides covered.  We already know cocktail hour is covered... oh hell who needs food?

[Hoagie]

We already know cocktail hour is covered...

Great!! What will you be pouring??

[dkutz]

Great!! What will you be pouring??

what ever you bring in the pitcher!!

[griffsmom]

As we all know, the good stuff that Hoagie has spoiled us with can be pretty expensive. Maybe we can decide what we'll feel like drinking in a couple of weeks and all chip in to bring the main spirit and mixers. Then Hoagie, if we ask real nice, would be our bartender?

[griffsdad]

Brian, we will purchase / contribute a bottle or two and mixers for the rally. Let me know what brand and the mixers. I do like the lemon drops - Kettle Vodka and the mixer. Let me know. Of course we will contribute fire wood. For the potlucks - should we have a theme - mexican, italian, or German for Oktoberfest?
 
If it's really cold we can have Irish coffee. How fun!!!!

[dkutz]

German for Oktoberfest?
 
!!!!

I have never done Roladen in the DO, I bet it would be GOOD!!!!!!  yum.

What do you think Lori??

MMMmmmmm, roladen auf der DO (der DO? die DO? das DO? Is a DO masculine, feminine or neuter?) schmeckt sehr gut! Und mit ein bisschen spaetzle und rote wein!!  Ja Ja!!

[griffsmom]

If we really want to do an Oktoberfest, I could make a German red cabbage salad that is a family recipe and also sehr gut!

Well, our supply of Ketel One is pretty low. We've pretty much run through the case I had. Doesn't mean here won't be any; just means we won't be pouring it as freely.
 
Now, tequila on the other hand, we have a lot of. Have a friend who is the owner/president of a tequila company that just started importing to the US. Gave me 6 bottles of assorted tequilas, 2 each Blanco, Reposado and Anejo. You guys bring the Dr. Swami and Bone Daddy's Margarita Mix and as long as we don't run out of ice we'll be good.
 
Margaritas kind of lend themselves to a Mexican theme, don't they? Don't know what margaritas with sauerkraut would taste like???

Ok I was always under the impression that you had a connection to kettle one and go thte stuff free or cheap.  Guess not.

As for food theme, doens't matter to me, let me kow...

Your impression was correct. We did have. Don't anymore. Long story that can be summarized in two words:  Corporate Restructuring. I can bore you with the gory details around the campfire one night at San Elijo.
 
It's a drag as we enjoyed the Ketel One too. We are now marketing a new product called HARLEM. It's good, but we enjoyed the Ketel One more. I may have a bottle of HARLEM for San Elijo if you are interested. It is a shot drink.
 
That said, we enjoyed bringing the Ketel One and sharing it with everone.  Good food, good booze and good wine are meant to be shared with good people. So the tequila will be there in place of the Ketel One. I trust most of you will be okay with the substitution??

HARLEM???  ok.  Well if you haven't noticed (well its not obvious by this thread thats for sure)  I am NOT a heavy drinker.  Shot drinks aren't my thing.... yet. I drink "fru fru" drinks like Hard mikes and Margaritas.  Lori made me a margarita friday that had me staggering through camp, WITH ONE GLASS!!!

So what ever is there or not there I will live with.

If we're going to do a Mexican theme, I could make DO chicken enchiladas. I haven't made those for quite some time.
 
I am not a "shots" girl. But tequila in other stuff is good!:sombraro:
