Meal(s) for April event

[kimp]

Because forbid I let anyone respond before I bombard the thread with more stuff -
Here's the suggested list

Taco Bar list

NEED
Soft tortillas
Taco shells (aka corn tortillas)
Cheese
Lettuce
Salsa
Sour cream
Tomatoes
Paper plates!

WANT
Beans (black/pinto/retried are options)
Black olives
Cilantro
Guacamole
Onions (raw/grilled/green are options)
Peppers (bell, raw jalapeños, pickled jalapeños are options)
Rice

MAYBE
Corn (roasted or regular)
Mushrooms
Potatoes

EXTRA
Corn chips
Green salad (better than eating the lettuce, etc from the toppings)
Rice (to eat might need more)
Eater's Choice

*
At this time I'm going with numbers of who has said they want in - looks like 5 so far so if we aim for enough of each thing for 8 people, 2 servings we're probably good
If more come on-board during the week (I'm going to say end of week cut off to give people time to shop) I can change quantity

*
I figure we each commit to something from the NEED list and maybe something from the WANT list
From NEED I've got:
- I've got 3 bags of shredded cheese - might be enough if only a few people, otherwise could use more
- I also have a bag of whole wheat soft tortillas to contribute - will probably need more
From WANT (and EXTRA) I've got:
- several boxes of Arroz Amarillo I can make
- and I'll do smoked peppers (if someone wants fresh feel free to bring)

*
As if posited I'm asking you to bring your protein of choice - with more to share if you are of a mind to do so

I'll bring along two things of Onions and a bag or two of Tostitos.

I may also be making a vegetarian chili; anyone have a spare hotplate or crockpot?

Brendan - no water in the diner; have to lug water
That's why I asked if you could bring.
We're totally roughing it!

[Eden Jones]

I'm still waiting to hear back from the rest of Hanley House*, but so far, at least two of us are in. I expect the rest will jump aboard as they check their email.

:l Not sure. I have a 1-gal jug already, and if I find covers for my larger containers I might manage. Maybe snag a second gallon.

I Hope someone'll be available to help bring it to the diner. I'll be arriving late.

[Amelia Casselman]

I can bring 5 billion paper plates. And by 5 billion I mean a "safe number." Can never have too many.

[kimp]

Yay! 5 billion paper plates! My dream of building a paper plate fort is in sight!

[Owle Isohos]

I will happily bring soft tortillas and refried beans. I'll also bring a couple bags of shredded cheese, because you can never have too much cheese (this is a known fact of the universe.)

We're planning this for both Friday and Saturday nights, yes?

[kimp]

Lauren - I think the plan is for Saturday night.

I may not be around until game start on Friday.
