Ski trip-Saturday Dinner At the Cabin

TheWife · February 13th, 2004, 11:06

I am assuming this is still at the cabin on Saturday. Should we take suggestions for the meal?

Perhaps a mid-winter BBQ? If you have a grill, I'd be game. We would, of course, either chip in or bring our own food. No reason for you to foot the bill.

Thanks again for being so accomodating and hospitable, Michelle! Your tops!

A BBQ would be awesome!

I m sure whatever you fix will be great.

thanks so much for inviting us over for dinner.

Sorry guys, there is one small little volcano boy scout type grill, Corbin says it's such a small surface that it would be a PITA to try to cook for more then 2-3 people. Any other suggestions?

Italian-spaghetti or alfredo, meatballs

Mexican-Tacos, enchiladas

Hamburgers on the George Forman

Pizza Bar

etc etc

Mmmmm . . . Pizza.

You can't go wrong with any of those options, Michelle! Pasta is really easy and quick and we could throw a batch of Alfredo and Marinara sauce together so people would have a choice. Add some garlic bread, a salad, and maybe an easy dessert and we're done. I think that's what I'd vote for.

We're counting the days!

i'm voting for pasta with the marina and alfredo sauces! that's nice and easy, and since you live there all the time you can't screw it up like my mom had done when we've gone before (cause of the altitude boiling water thing) John says' hes down with whatever i am so theres 2 votes for that :-D thanks michelle!

TheWife · February 15th, 2004, 13:58

How do you screw up boiling water? LOL. I have never thought of that. What do you do at high altitude that you don't do at low altitude?

TheWife · February 15th, 2004, 14:53

Hey, do we have a head count yet of who we are expecting at this dinner?

TheShortOne · February 15th, 2004, 16:09

I'm not at my box right now, but I believe everyone in the condo is down. That's 5.

Cheers

well i vote for pizza or burgers. but whatever is fine with me i m not too particular.

TheShortOne · February 16th, 2004, 12:17

because of the pressure difference in the alititudes, the water either boils at a higher temp or at a lower one, i can't remember which way it goes, I think it's higher, cause i seem to remember the spaghetti being mushy since it was cooked for the same amount of time at a higher temperature.

E_Dawg · February 16th, 2004, 16:59

It's lower; so you'd have to cook it longer

TheShortOne · February 16th, 2004, 17:14
