Ring in the New Year at PF's Party!

[Greg Bernhardt]

Rock out the new year at PF! We'll have chat open all night/morning! Now, we need to figure out who is bringing what. We're going to need a lot of booze, snacks and games! oh, and I'm opening the up the staff whirlpool to everyone

 

[cristo]

Sounds good. I will probably pop in before it turns new year for most of your Americans, but I can't make any promises on sobriety!

 

[Evo]

Yay! Thanks Greg! Kurdt will be bringing the Scotch and various brews from the UK. Perhaps Red Rum will pop in with some fine Dutch beer. I''l bring the hats and noise makers.

So for the "over the ponders" what time should we begin the merriment?

 

[George Jones]

I'll be home, so I'll check in, but my wife and I likely will watch a movie. I'm an hour east of Eastern, and my daughter will be up before seven on New Year's day, so I'll be in bed early.

Watching a movie every two weeks or so (a little more often during the holidays) is the only TV we watch. We usually watch mysteries, but, tentatively, we plan to watch ET. I think we're the only two people on the planet that have yet to see it

I've never watched ET.

I've never watched ET.

Me either, but I watched Up last week. It's a pretty good movie.

I'll bring the chips and Ninfa's green sauce.

MIH is my best friend.

 

[dlgoff]

You know I'll be there. I keep wanting to get into the sherry but I guess I can wait. Beer will have to do for now. brb

 

[turbo]

Hmm...what to bring? Chili relishes for the hot-heads, and milder green-tomato/jalapeno salsa for the wimps. Chips for dipping... I'd make my chili-marinaded grilled jumbo tiger shrimp, but there are too many PF'ers and I'm not wealthy.

 

[dlgoff]

Jumbo tiger shrimp? :!) I'll chip in. Can you make it cajun please?

I'd have to tone it down to do Cajun. They are so hot, my cousin's cheeks and forehead get flushed, but they are so good that she won't stop eating them until they're gone. If they don't raise a sweat on your scalp, I screwed up and made them too mild.

 

[dlgoff]

Okay hot is fine. I have plenty of beer and tums. BTW I found a place that sell/sold Molson Gold; they were out. I will find some somewhere.

Ooo I just watched up a few days ago. I loved it!
Dug is the cutest dog.

 

[Evo]

I want shrimp scampi. Wait, who's bringing the champagne? Can't have a New Year's party without champagne!

Black-eyed peas are required.

Wow. There's going to be a http://www.kctv5.com/news/22081971/detail.html" .
Maybe someone should bring some:

Black-eyed peas are required.

Thank goodness you remembered! My Vietnamese friend finally got me to try a dessert that is made with blackeyed peas (Chè đậu trắng). I really had to get my courage up before taking a bite - it wasn't bad, though. The peas are mixed with rice and coconut milk, so you really only taste coconut.

It looks like this:

 

[Moonbear]

Just so I know what to bring, will the whirlpool/hottub be with or without bathing suits for the party?

I have pomegranate vodka to make pomegranate martinis. I can make the rum drinks too.

 

[Evo]

I'm afraid there may be no New Year's Evo this year, I know everyone Sunday was looking forward to New Year's Evo, but I don't think I'll be joining. Hope the rest of you have a great time!

Wha--? Why not?

Does that mean you have actual real life plans? Or are you just being a party pooper and going to sleep early?

Um... wouldn't that imply that she HAS an actual real life? We know better...

Ahhh

Maybe a hot date?

 

[lisab]

I'll bring SCUBA gear...I'll rent it out, for a small fee .

 

[Evo]

True, I have no life, well I have a stalker that sends me orchids and food gift baskets.

Ahhh

Maybe a hot date?

No hot date. Not even a cold date.

I finally got my new computer fixed yesterday, and if I don't fall asleep I will be there.

What timne are we opening?

It's snowing again dl, I've been snow plowed in and can't get out.

 

[Astronuc]

Assuming Greg remembers - probably sometime in the morning and through NY day until he turns it off.

 

[hypatia]

Looks like I may be popping in and out. We have a street party going on tomorrow night, which is always fun. But with the weather forecast, snow and very cold, I'll be coming into warm up.
Think I'll bring hot butter rum!

 

[Andre]

Given the time difference, maybe we can chat at both sides of the night and of course I will bring the "oliebollen" and "appelflappen" (oops not translated )

 

[turbo]

Here's hoping the power stays on. I had to clear snow again yesterday, and today the temperatures were in the single digits for the morning despite lots of sun. Starting NYE and lasting through the weekend, we are expecting to get snow...LOTS of snow.
