2018: New Year's Castanet Party

[Queen K]

How did you know my grandma's secret recipe? Although she did have it on a faster rotation.

That's easy, just use smaller glasses. That way, she can claim that she just had "a wea one". AND if you were to Google "wea", where does that get you?. Grandma was way ahead of her time.

You're going to make sure that pool is heated right?

Oh and you're in charge of snow removal duty.

The pool is warm, The hot tub is full but turned waaaay down because it is outside and I don't use it much anymore. If it was steaming away in this weather, there would be 2" of ice on the patio.

[Queen K]

At least mosquitoes won't be a problem at the party.

[alanjh595]

Remember Folks, bring;
Your own towels.
Non-slip footwear.
Soap/shampoo/pit stick, for the after swim shower.
Bathing suits if that is your choice and is optional.

Also, there is no smoking of any (still) illegal or noxious products.
Cigarettes are okay but only outside and away from the house and downwind only.
If you have a favorite pool cue or darts, bring them.
Only non-breakable drinkware is allowed. (I have lots to share as well as plastic cutlery and paper plates.)

Has somebody got CDs for music? I don't think you would like my 2 choices. I have both Country and Western.

See you all, later!

I was just thinking about setting up tables and chairs..........does somebody have a count as to how many are coming?

[Queen K]

I hope the Swat team doesn't remember us from the Housing Party gang.

They might set off the tear gas this time.

Alan says no micturation allowed in pool.


Spent the day whipping 5 gallons of cream for dessert and the like.

This reads a titch weird to me.

[Queen K]

Catsumi, we weren't supposed to divulge...you know....plans....

[Catsumi]

Relax, QK. Only devious minds could construe our plans for the big celebration.

Did you get that supply of wine corks yet?

[Queen K]

Amazon is delivering tomorrow morning.

And that other thing we talked about .... you know.

[normaM]

VV had no ball gowns, guess a hospital gown going to have to do. Do the ties go in the back or the front? If in the front for modesty I'll wear a halloweenie onesie

[Queen K]

That'll do. I'm calling Bman to ask about that set of heels he got from from me last year. And the black thing.

[Catsumi]

BMan has lent me coach and four, about the only conveyance that will make it through the darn snowdrifts, but wow, those horses can surely pack it away (and unpack it too).

Norma, don't worry about gown (hospital or otherwise) as I have a spare made of camel eyelashes that will fit you just fine.

Party!! Party !!!!! Party !!!!!!!

[Queen K]

I got us the lyrics to Auld-Lang-Syne, I except everyone to have them memorized for the midnight sing-a-long.
