Bring your favorite potluck item (if that’s in your skill-set).

Rules for the party:

1. Be cool.
2. Don’t let Jackson Reinhardt (aka the cat) leave the house.
3. Have fun.
4. Do not put frilly underthings on your skull.
5. Eat (potluck, duh).
6. Remember:  PrinCecilie Wilhelm is mostly correct.

Probably something about cake.  Or ice cream.  Jackson Reinhardt FUCKING LOVES ice cream.

I’m thinking making a pork roll with hazelnuts and marmalade or something.  Rice beneath it.  I don’t know. Something like that.

Ah, what a birthday month it’s been thus far.  So tired… Anyway, Friday is swift approaching and there were questions.  Well, one that’s really important:  Should I bring an instrument?  I have never held any prohibitions against musical instruments.  Bring it!  That is all.

I’m heading out to get a pork loin.  Then I have to cut it into a roll.  Should be interesting. (Thanks to Elizabeth Klein for the instructionals.)

Less than 24 hours.  Do you know where your roasting pan is?

Cutting a pork loin into a flat roll shape is not as easy as they make it look in those videos, Elizabeth Klein.  They fucking lied to us!  Now, where’s that meat hammer? …

Rolls rolled after some initial thinness troubles.  Thank you, meat hammer.  New band name?

Another question I’ve been getting is about this potluck thing.  If you can’t bring food (whatever the reason:  time, skills, moral objections), that’s fine.  Can you bring beer or wine?  Sure.  Welcome additions.  Can you just show up and eat the food?  Sure.  See rule number five.

Gala Adventurous Grandannual Birthday Shindig (No Shovels Required)

Thanks to all who came and to those who made it only in spirit (Dan Glasser gets credit on both accounts by sending half his genetic material).  Nothing broken and little spilled (just that mishap when Cassandra Braget was showing me how to deflect a beer-attacker like a ninja).  We love you all and it was great to see everyone celebrating our birthdays.
