Thanksgiving 2008:
Just because some dish is already on the below list, it doesn't mean you can't
make it too.  If you want to bring something that will need to be warmed up, 
there may be a stove spot available, but the oven will be fully occupied 
on Thursday.

I have 4 turkeys that will be cooked Thursday (though 2 may be held over 
until Friday depending on Thursday turnout).  Thursday I will also make 
my "Dark Matter" bagel dressing* ("each pound of which weighs over 
ten-thousand pounds") and many steamed, buttered brussels sprouts.  
Depending on turnout, I have various appetizer-type frozen foods that may be
prepared and also over 15 lbs of pork ribs that will likely be prepared 
on Saturday.

Lauren will make breads and piess.

Andi and Nick are making mashed potatoes and, possibly, sweet potatoes 
and pies(s).

Mara+1 are bringing something.

Spyder+2 are bringing deviled eggs, a shrimp/cream cheese appetizer, and
some sodas.

Stevina et al are bringing salmon cream cheese spread, "black cod 
toasts" and a spinich salad.

Layla and Dan are bringing a pie on Friday or Saturday.

Alan is bringing a cheesecake on Friday.


*Many of you are not foodies and have been confused by this word.  
"Stuffing" is food put in another food.  "Dressing" is just like 
stuffing, but not put inside another food.


Thanksgiving 2007:
Just because some dish is already on the below list, it doesn't mean you can't
make it too.  If you want to bring something that will need to be warmed up, 
there may be a stove spot available, but the oven will be fully occupied.

I will be making 4 turkeys (two "Weird" and two "Traditional"), the associated
2 gravies and my usual bagel dressing.  The weird turkeys will be based on a
South American recipe involving cognac.

Casa Imbri is coming and bringing some manner of Sweet Potato dish and
possibly pumpkin pie and/or bread.

Friday and may bring something down for that.

Pi is supplying some of the beverages.

Sara and her mom may come.  If they do, they'll "bring something easy, like
cookies or something."

Schlake will be bringing a leavened cornbread.




Thanksgiving 2006:
Just because some dish is already on the below list, it doesn't mean you
can't make it too.  For instance, we tend to not have enough green-bean 
casserole, even when multiple people make it, but some years we've had
too many pies.  If you want to bring something that will need to be warmed 
up, there may be a stove spot available, but the oven will be fully
occupied.

I will be making 2 turkeys (one "Weird" and one "Traditional"), the
associated 2 gravies and my usual bagel dressing.

Bill and Erin are coming.  Bill's mother and sister are also coming.  They're 
bringing:
*Stuffing.  Horrible horrible fattening tasty stuffing [He means dressing]
*Sweet potato pie
*Pumpkin chocolate cookies

Buddy and Margaret are coming.  They're making chocolate chip oatmeal cookies
and maybe something else.

Eric and Cathy are coming and will probably make some sort of spicy turkey
breast and a side dish or salad of some kind to go with it.

John B. will be making mashed potatos, and may make a vegetable or a dessert.

John Shipman is coming, but he's coming after dinner and probably not bringing
any food.

Lauren, Brad, their her mom and their dad are coming.  They're not sure what 
they are bringing.

Renee is coming.  She is bringing cranberry sauce, brownies, and possibly a 
pie.  There is small chance her mom may come too.

Schlake is coming.  He's bringing a big hunk of uncooked pork because he's too
distracted by WoW to cook it.




Thanksgiving 2005:
Just because some dish is already on the below list, it doesn't mean you
can't make it too.  For instance, we tend to not have enough green-bean 
casserole, even when multiple people make it, but some years we've had
too many pies.  If you want to bring something that will need to be warmed 
up, there may be a stove spot available, but the oven will be fully
occupied.

I will be making 2 turkeys (one "Weird" and one "Traditional"), the
associated 2 gravies and my usual bagel dressing.  I will also make 
some sort of soup, possibly carrot.

Adam Roth will probably show up for dinner and may not be able to bring
anything.

Eric and Cathy will be coming.  Eric will "cook something with meat and
she'll cook something cool. And your pathetic little friends won't be
able to eat it, muahahahahaa! Maybe. I'm not so sure about the last
bit, but there will be SHEEPMEAT! And it will be MIGHTY!"

John Balulis will be making mashed potatos.

John Shipman will be coming but maybe not for dinner.  If he does, he'll
bring some sort of "meat main dish."

Julie will be coming and will be making green-bean casserole and rice 
crispy treat turkeys.

Kelly and his parents will be coming.  They will bring cornbread dressing
or sweet potatos.  His friends Ben and Christina may also be coming.  If

be bringing vegetarian dressing (it may be vegan, but I'm not sure) and 
a couple of pies.

Renee will be bringing cranberry sauce and a pumpkin pie.

Jake Kestner doesn't know what he's making/bringing.

Bill, his mom and sister don't yet know what they are bringing.

David Baird will be bringing money to offset the cost of the turkeys
since he doesn't have time to cook.

Erin may or may not be bringing food, but is coming.

Julie will be bringing rice crispie turkeys, cranberry sauce and a
green bean casserole (don't let the fact that Julie is bringing one
stop you from bringing another green bean casserole, there is never
enough of it each year).

No one else has RSVP'd in a "I'm coming" way.
