Maura Lynn:
I have spoken with several folks and Paul D's graduation was mentioned. It was recommended that we have the pot luck the same night at Paul's graduation thing so that we can "kill two birds with one stone." Any thoughts? That's around December 10 or 11. Call me.
Maura Lynn:
I am interested in having a Black On Black Rhyme pot luck in about 3 weeks. We would need entrees (including vegan and/or vegetarian entrees), sides, desserts, drinks, paper cups, plates, and plastic silverware. If anyone is willing to volunteer their spot, that would be great. Also, I want to do a Back Talk gift exchange. If anyone is interested and would be willing to drive up on a Saturday or something to do this, let me know.
