Scully-
Sorry I missed it too! It's okay though. When is the next one?

Jamie - I understand. I'll check the subject more often. Is anything planned for this Friday when Third Gear plays at Heres2theArts?

Jamie,

Great food last night at HTTA. Don't tell Art but I went for thirds at the ziti and ziti ain't my favorite. The lemon chicken was excellent but everyone else beat me to 2nds before I could get to my second.

I look forward to CC.

Macaroni Pie -- THAT'S MY FAVORITE, they make it sooooo well. It's a block of macaroni and cheese with a great flavor. I must say I'm very impressed by the selection for the CC f2f (full disclosure, I LOVE CC). I have been seriously hampered from attending the last few f2fs because of the menus not always having good vegetarian options.

Thanks (whomever was responsible) for making the menu so flexible this time. I'm just checking the dates (to make sure they work for TS) but I can't wait to go and meet everyone.

I have invited Mr. Campbell - he was not enthusiastic (but then again, he isn't very enthusiastic about most things) I told him to stop by if he wanted to. I wouldn't be surprised to see him vegging on the couch when we got back, expecting leftovers.

I think around 16-19 coming - Scully, campbell29, SoOrLady, mem, Francesca, ElaineHarris - possibly Dave.

I think we'll be able to accomodate a few walkins as well. See everyone in a few hours.

Scully, hope you feel better and are able to taste the great food from CC.

A big thanks to the hosts, Vidia and Mario, for setting up a tremendous buffet! I'm still stuffed.

Jamie, thank you. Never had a reaction like this before (not my first root canal) but am still upset that I missed this one.

I'll be going back with Lynn and John. They were both crazy about the food and loved the place. Sometimes we miss treasures right under our noses.

Tom, maybe he means that in the "biblical" sense!

It was great meeting all of you and I'm sorry that so many of you didn't make it. Vitia and Mario put on SUCH an amazing spread. I felt HORRIBLE that so much food was left over and that more people didn't show up to support this great business. I suggested to Jamie that perhaps in the future he should get some kind of deposit from people or maybe even have us call the restaurant directly to make a reservation and pay for it. I'm sure everyone who rsvp'd but didn't go had a fine reason - I just feel so bad for the restaurant. I can't even tell you the sheer quantity of food that was put out for us based on the number of people that rsvp'd, and less than half of us showed up. I'm sorry to say but I felt a bit... well... embarassed, actually.

Anyway, I paid for an extra share and had that for dinner last night, so I got to enjoy it twice! I hope I get to meet more of you in the future.
