Just me, I'm leaving the brats with their father. Or if Reino really wants,
I can bring Tony, but he probably won't eat anything anyways. :lol:

I don't think Reino will eat anything either. I'm planning something else for the kids. You can bring Tony if you want. It's up to you since it's your day off. I think there's a small female coming with Raam. I've found that girls adapt to talk about Star Wars very quickly.

2/1. It'll be a great opportunity for Maia to meet Uma finally.

My husband would rather eat nails than do something social. :)

I is 1,
menuwise, huevos rancheros rests on prefabs; tortillas, refried beans and hot salsa (as in cooked salsa), and the only thing done on spot is the eggs, so I don't know as the stuff needs to be done beforehand so... umm.. need to organize, and who brings what.

Though I always improvise them :lol:
Cheers, Hank W.

My brother is arriving tomorrow with a huge load of stuff. He had to borrow a suitcase since I borrowed one from him last summer. I can't even remember what I asked for but I do know that some of it is for our Fiesta.

Sello Citymarket, bottom shelf. San Marcos brand.
Kamppi KKK-kauppa (or however many Ks it has ;)) has refried beans,
but not the same brand.

Dunno about other places.

Add 1 more adult - Meghan. She will bring guacamole, 7 layer dip and prickly pear cactus.

I was in CM Sello yesterday and was approached by a young women giving samples of Santa Maria's new Tex-Mex products. I saw a couple of margarita mixes there. Could be interesting.

It is a challenge getting all the ingredients, but I love this blog, it has some great recipes and twists to traditional tex mex favorites.

We should set a time for this. Should we meet at 4 and plan to eat by 7? Is three hours enough/too much/not enough time?

Agree, As We will start after Uma's nap.. If we tell her before she will not nap even in the car..
¤ sounds OK to me..
I will try to pre-prepare most of the things and then come there to mix it up and do some cooking before being served..
Till now, I still dont know if I m gonna be the designated driver yet!! :cry:
BTW; TM , I will try to bring the potable electric cooker if we want more cookers if that is oK with ya!!

As it doesn't seem anyone's bringing any desserts, I'll bring
those :)

And I promise, it won't be the fossilized chicle that I found
on the top of the freezer when trying to get the youngest
out of his room that day :lol:
