2006 BBQ season approaches

richlevy · 02-20-2006, 08:31 AM

I'm looking forward to the official start of BBQ season. I've already purchased a replacement lighted umbrella for the deck. Added to the candles I'm going to put into the knee-high birdbath, it should provide a nice visual background. I'm already mentally planning a menu and working on getting the pizza stone and wood chips in my propane grill to produce a 'brick oven' pizza.

Hopefully, Plastic Forks will be on again this year and I can field test some ideas.

Plastic Forks 25.

For real.

Will there be commemorative T-shirts in the gift shop?

Well, not quite.

It is with regret that I have to inform everyone that Plastic Forks will not be held this year (2006). This is a decision of the host ... even I don't have the full story, but it does have something to do with ForksBob overbooking himself this year. There will be a smaller party to maintain continuity ... if you are invited, you already know it.

The Official Web Site should have additional information and updates.

Much smaller. Officially, it might be regarded as a "small, intimate gathering" (not THAT way). There were four of us, six if you count the cats.

Depite all ---um, er, whatever---I am going to be there. At Forks.

Can Richlevy grill my chicken breast? Coz it looks like he's good.

PLUS: I want to worship Jinx and wolf. Like the goddesses they are. (I will offer cashmere argyle sox and bullets)

jinx · 02-20-2006, 12:57 PM

Bri, if you're going I'll be there.... I just need to find a date as LJ is so unreliable on Saturdays.

Trilby · 02-20-2006, 01:08 PM

jinx, honey, my dream date (resplendant with Bowling Outfit) is you and wolf. We can be each other's date insofar as we: #1) will have food, and #2) will have stories! Should ANY ONE OF US bring illegal shit... well, it's up to that person to pray for redemption. And, natch, Chinese food. A lot of Chinese food. Plus, probably, a tent. With a chimney hole. And, a spit to roast whole hogs with apples. But, other than that...it's a clam-bake!

*so wish for a clam-bake*

Uh-oh

As for the other thing, you can be sure that I will take care of any breasts you put in my hands.

Lets see. Freaky women, check. Bonfire, check. Mead, check. Yep, it sounds like Forks.

Well, southern Californians mostly don't barbeque in the winter rains. Mostly. Their attention is often occupied by watching the hillsides to see if any are going to come loose. Lost some people at La Conchita that way.

That sounds way too organized, but you can always suggest it to Bob.

SteveDallas · 02-22-2006, 10:20 AM

I'd suggest photos of the horses. After all theyu're more valuable than the guests.

busterb · 02-22-2006, 07:29 PM
