I shouldn't go, but this (the Communal Dinner) sounds great. Is anyone here going?

This sounds really cool, unfortunately I have at least two conflicts that evening....

Most women don't seem to know how much flour to use so it gets so thick you have to chop it off the plate with a knife and it tastes like wallpaper paste....Just why cream sauce is bitched up so often is an all-time mytery to me, because it's so easy to make and can be used as the basis for such a variety of really delicious food.

I just talked to Bryan to confirm that it's full, and it is, but he took my number in case someone cancels. Why did I just do that?? :wacko::wacko:

I gave Brian a call at the last minute Wednesday on the off chance. No way. Talked to him last night and he said it sold out in about a day. I said "do more" and he acknowledged as how that would be really smart.
