I need a break and I haven't had a bar-b-que since last summer.

Can we have a religious feast in an fun outdoor setting?

EVERYONE IS INVITED. Small talk only please.

Let's start with what we should bring, edible, to this feast. We can
all even attempt to make it kosher for those who wish it.

One rule,"respect please". Any who would like a prayer before eating,
will say it and we will all listen repectfully. Christian, Jewish,
pagan, cult, atheist, each to thier own. A community of blessings.

Foods first - we'll get a menu plan.

I have an open pit, a huge grill and a yard full of empty tables
waiting.

I have created a very special recipe - 'deviled eggs'.
not only yummy, but also seems a fitting donation for an atheist.

I'll bring chicken nachos.

Here I brought a vegetable dip and a huge bowel of uncooked califlower.

And some roses to brighten the table!

Sweet potatoe pie for afters....

Maybe a greek salad, with rocket and baby spinach, sun dried tomatoes,
plump kalamata olives, fetta cheese, artichoke hearts and a nice
balsamic dressing..

Do you mind if I make some chickpea burgers? I can cook them in a pan,
away from the meat, if people prefer..

Roses, how lovely, may I add some daisies?

no pinic would be complete without hambuger

Jess that salad sound mouth watering.

Any body up for a bit O' tossin of the caber.

Being virtual we can all toss the same distance and all win.

Hey this is getting good. Is anyone opposed to roasting a pig? I don't
want to disgust anyone, or worse not have someone show up because I'm
cooking a, well, unclean animal?

Does anyone have a really good sweet bar-b-que sauce? Pulled pork
alongside those burgers. Noachos, and OMG (oh sorry!) Jess that salad
sounds wonderful.

Red, it's fine...my children choose to eat meat, like most people do,
and I am the cook most times, I choose not to eat meat.

I posted an open invitataion to all, under the General Discussion
heading. Let's play nice with all the neighbors, maybe we could talk
somone into making a terrific 'spiked' punch or rum drink. Rum is a
pretty big topic "up there".

For those who don't induldge - we'll have someone make a soft punch.

Red just bury it with pineapples in a fire pit.

taste right nice when its done.

Must go 'dream' about this a while. Will check back tomorow. OH it is
tomorrow already, ok, later then.

I'll bring 2 pasta salads, one with ham and one without.
And a salad containing of mushrooms, peppers and onions.

Looking forward to that pig

religious feast!!! who is burning on the stake??


grill the Christians or the Muslims first !!

do you serve red or white wine with them???

I'll bring my momma's Sour Cream Potato Salad, a fresh fruit pizza and
diet pepsi for those of us who don't imbibe alcohol.


uhm AB whats a caber?? If it involves throwing everyone may want to
duck, I am a bit of a klutz and well its most likely to hit someone or
myself.....

Its kinda a male thing.

You wear your clan tabbard and kilt. (and yes I were it in tradition).

You toss a 17 foot long log as far as you can throw it.

Since this is a virtual feast I reckon you should have no promblem.

Ok let me rustle up a kilt and well I haven't got a clan so I'll just
wear me turquoise

Sounds like a party, did you bring your guitar?

Can one come to a religious feast without a religion?

I am not part of any group, religion, or organization, I claim no title
beyond that of my name, or stations I have held [daughter, sister, wife,
mother...], nor do I adhere to any specific doctrine. Instead I follow
definitions and the effects of causes. Personaly I only know my own
experience, and I only eat organic food. You would be amazed by how
many people find the fact of it offensive, but I feel welcome here.

And to any who might be concerned, I will not shove my food down your
throat if you do not shove your food down mine, but if you do, it had
better be organic.

Any body like to play cards?

corn on the cobb

Bithiyah, a lot of us are not part of any group.

Everyone is welcome here, just bring yourself and some food.

Hi everyone,
So here are the RSVP's so far. Invite all your friends. Let's keep
it rolling, make it a week long event, culminating next weekend with the
big Feast.
Add food pitch in as we go along. In the mean time we'll play games.
AB was the first one to provide a new game adventure, and Bithi - has
suggested my all time favorite 'cards'. Any game but bridge will suit
me.
