ellyssianTonight is really more of a working party, the pre-meeting of the holiday season meeting, as it were.
A bunch of Deb's family is coming over. Deb's sister Pat, along with Justin and me, will be ensuring that everyone gets stuffed pre-Turkey Day. Pat made two big freakin' lasagna, and Justin and I made up a pan and a half of stuffed shells. We'll be accompanying those cheesy-type foods with a simple lettuce salad.
Then the business starts!
Names will be drawn, in a tradition that started last year, and those names will ensure everyone doesn't have to buy a gift for everyone else, at least kid-wise. Makes things a bit more affordable for those who can't, which is most everyone these days.
Then, I expect, card playing will ensue.
Tomorrow will be a birding expotitionTM followed by a dinner party for a much smaller group of friends (not stinky family types!1), with Bacon Wrapped Catfish, and Build-Yer-Own Baked Potato for the menu.
Anywho, more folks arriving, so I have to go get everything ready!
