It's the first annual DU BBQ in our backyard, Sunday, August 20th!

[Missy Vixen]

Hi everyone,

We'd like to cordially invite you to the first annual DU backyard barbecue! It's a potluck. C'mon out and share a favorite dish (and a lot of fun conversation!) with other DU'ers!

When: Sunday, August 20th, 1:00 PM

Where: Our house in Duvall, WA. (Please send your e-mail contact via PM; we'll add you to the informational e-mail we'll be sending out.)

We're asking everyone to bring what they'd like to grill and a dish that feeds five. If your last name starts with A-M, please bring a side dish. If your last name starts with N-Z, please bring dessert.

Those who'd like to fly or drive in -- we'd love to see you, too!

We'll have a great time, and we hope to see YOU there!

Julie

p.s. Needless to say -- we're hoping for sun!

2. I'm not even on the mainland, let alone WA state

so naturally I voted "Robb is a dingbat". :evilgrin:

[Missy Vixen]

3. Are you sure you don't want to get on a plane?

You could initiate everyone into the joys of the pu-pu platter ;-)!

4. Maybe next time

but Robb will still be a dingbat. :evilgrin:

Besides, I hear you guys make out okay in the Hawaiian food department yourselves:

Few other mainland cities can boast as many as four (SF, LA, Vegas).

7. There's actually five

8. Are you and flamingyouth going to have Blue Hawaiians?

[Missy Vixen]

12. Of course!

I have a blender, and I'm not afraid to use it! ;-)

Since we're talking about Blue Hawaiians, though, we must have the following as well...





Woo-hoo! It's a party!
Julie

[SeattleGirl]

15. Oh, most definitely!

9. For those that can't make it to Seattle, there's a pool party in Austin

on that same day. Thread's in the Texas forum. :hi:

10. Well if I pull out of Miami now

I might be able to make it in time. It would be a hell of a road trip.

[Missy Vixen]

16. YEAHHHHHHH!

<legallyblonde> Vacay! Road Trip!</legallyblonde>

You'll love the beautiful Snoqualmie Valley!

Julie

[SeattleGirl]

17. But we'd welcome you with open arms!

And I bet Julie and flamingyouth would even offer you a Blue Hawaiian!

[RagingInMiami]

24. Does she look like this?

Then I might just fly out there?

[Missy Vixen]

27. Actually, I'm a pasty faced troll looking for a nice guy to dump on

You know you're intrigued, aren't you? ;-) :scared:

Have a great time! I really wanted to come, but all these fucking friends are getting in the way of my life!

Think of the fun we'll have!

Julie

[swag]

20. Would think about it, but we will all be too hungover from Roller Derby.

[GalleryGod]

14. Good Luck.

It sounds great.

[SeattleGirl]

18. We had a great time at the Seattle Meet-Up in January

The idea for the barbeque was hatched then, and I've been looking forward to it ever since.

[Missy Vixen]

19. You're not COMING?

You're a Springsteen fan, and you're not going to BE HERE?

:cry:

but I don't think it goes quite that far. :D

[Missy Vixen]
