The Kitchen Table

I need some ideas

12 years ago

I have Fam coming in next week for the Duck/Buff game. I want the partay of the year. We can't tailgate at the game (grouchy little security guards and people with no sense of humor).

My tailgate after game party, so far, is "Buffalo Butt Stew" (it's just chili with buffalo meat but the kids will love helping make it). Cornbread, honey butter.......

Where else can I go?

I would like a recipe for Crow Soup too....there are 30 in my yard.

Some type of green salad, make mine with variety of lettuce, olives, some cheese, grated carrots etc. Good with an oriental type of dressing.

Those are beautiful, Shades. I don't have a way to get any colored bottles. I've even checked at the bars. The bars around here do not carry wine bottles and those are the colored ones, I guess. I was thinking that round 1/2" or even 3/4" re-bar. That way he could weld a large washer about 12 inches from the bottom and I could slip PVC pipe over it that would turn when we drug the hose on it. I think I can find some used closet door knobs, the ones without the locking mechanism. Some ideas I've come up with is maybe painting them a bright color and gluing butterfly's or dragon fly's on the top. I even thought of having him weld decorative metal fence finials on top.

If the ribbons mean a lot to you or your daughter then you should do a nice display. But don't feel a sense of guilt if you'd rather put them in a box and store them away. They aren't part of your personal history with the dog, they are someone else's memories. The dog doesn't care about them :) We occasionally discuss on here people's guilt and feelings of responsibility about hand me downs that they feel no connection with. To me, the ribbons may fall into the same category.

Do you have any things you'd love to see every day? Do you like surfaces to stay pretty clean or do you like a lot of things on there? What are the colors you like? What kind of decor or other things do you find yourself drawn toward?

Oregon v Colorado?

I think Roco wants to thin that 'herd' of crows.

I'd like something sharp with the stew and cornbread -- giant dill pickles? (And not honey butter -- too sweet.)

Good idea on the green salad, marie. Healthy didn't even cross my mind but they will like it - probably crave it. LOL Thanks.

Glenda, sit down. Read "game"...."tailgate".... It's October! Animals? That diner food gotta be addling your brain. It. is. college. football. time. Everybody needs a fun passion. Just wanted some ideas to go along with chili cuz I'm physically fried getting ready for 15 people to invade my home.

Lemme break it down for ya, GF. A flock of Oregon Ducks are gonna be chasing a Colorado Buffalo herd, or vice versa, depending on who has the football, that oblong ball thingie that bounces crazy. A guy keeps score on how many times that ball goes over that last line, in control of some one's son's hand, or up through the sticks. Then, everyone shows up at my house to eat.

Just trying to get my ducks in a row (Bahahahaha - I still got it). Two days of flu with a 102 temp.

Just be nice and not be stupid/mean.

Roco, if you are at the game do me a favor and wave hello to Coach Scott Frost, he was a high school classmate of mine and we also went to college together. He is really a great guy and you ducks are lucky to have him. Also as a Husker fan and former Big 12 member, Kill the Buffs!! And a warning the Colorado fans are some of the worst I have ever seen, so be prepared.

Hey Rox, sorry you were sick, I guess we haven't talked for a while. I hope you are feeling better! I was going to suggest a salad, and maybe a few optional sides like slice black olives, chilies, sour cream, shredded cheese..... I'm not a cornbread fan but it does go well with chili! What about dessert? Something chocolate? Fruit?
