Homesteader Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 Before the "official" holiday weekend I think we need a private party here. A pre party to get us in the mood to relax for a few days. We sure deserve it for all we do for our families and loved ones! Let's take a few days off from our normal cares and have a little bbq. I have already brought a big juicy blueberry pie, homemade slaw with my own freshly harvested cabbages, and a mess of smoked ribs. Doesn't it just make your mouth water? What can you bring for our gathering? (Please no whipped cream or string canned cheese) Link to comment
gardnmom Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 A big platter of grilled chicken, with our special basting sauce and fresh pineapple. Link to comment
PlanoPa Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 I will bring the roasted corn on the cob and tons of fresh butter to slather it in. Q Link to comment
cartoongirl Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 Need some homemade baked beans to go with that. How about a big hunk of garlic bread too. I make the best homemade lemonade, garnished with fresh lemon and lots of icecubes made with a sprig of mint leaves in the centre of each cube, so I'll bring a few jugs of that along. It's so refreshing. Doesn't that sound FANCY! I heard the weather is going to be fantastic. Link to comment
chooselife Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 ok- I make made from scratch with milk from our goats and eggs from our chickens triple fudge brownies that are called Lunamoms' Kick*ss Brownies (don't yell at ME, *I* didn't name them) The main batter has half a pound of butter,2 cups of sugar and 4 eggs. From there it gets BAD for you Link to comment

joybri Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 Hello, I'm new to this site. I'm a age experienced, prepping person with latent squirrel tendencies when I find bargains/sales. I live in the very western Pacific Northwest near the Canadian border w/ husband & two grown daughters& family's nearby. I am a long haul truck driver, I team w/husband, and we go all over the 48 & Canada with a KW & stepdeck trailer. We haul a great deal of oversize freight; & are usually gone 8 to 12 days at a time. I hesitated a while before joining, as My reply to posts may not be timely. But I so strongly believe in what this site stands for...I couldn't hold out any longer. I can't urge you'all to prep more strongly. The misery we see going coast to coast is staggering. I wish everyone a great Memorial day, I'm flying in the fresh oysters for the picnic. sincerely......
