Hey Everybody! I am so excited to see how many people have responded to Aunt Mae's e-mail with what delicious dinner & dessert items they are offering to bring.
I also love how people are using "Reply All" to keep everybody else in the loop. When I tried reply all earlier, I got 3 e-mails returned to me with wrong e-mail addresses. So I was concerned that some people wouldn't be in the same loop... and I know we are all a little loopy at times! :)
So I thought it would really be helpful to post the current menu as it stands at 4:57 pm on Wednesday, 12/3... and whether people reply all or post here, I'll commit to keeping this up to date as long as you all continue to hit "reply all!"

**And a final winter wonderland thought for all of you. Here's a picture of today's beautiful snowfall on our Christmas lights (just click on it to see a larger view). It's a very pretty evening... just look at those snowflakes. And it's a great excuse for a hot chocolate too! **
Love you! ~Dawn 
P.S. Don't you miss this Bridget and Uncle Jeff???? (just a little?)

Greetings one and all!
Just a quick observation...Rita had written that she had noted that certain foods were "representing" the people that are bringing them...Mae is the turkey, Mom the ham, Julie the fruit and Rita the dip. I can certainly understand now why "little wienies" has not been spoken for yet!
LOL .... I'm rolling on the floor with laughter at that one! I really appreciate the observation! :)
I was thinking about you yesterday! Hope you are doing well! I was sipping a cup of coffee and wondering when the heck we would be able to coffee clutch. It's been way too long!
Love you lots!
Dawn
