minoanmissSo, I figured that, what with the preparations for MuskratJamboree kicking into high gear, I should start organizing the dinner I planned to have on Thursday March 31. This poll is open to everyone, but please only fill it out if you actually intend to come to dinner at my house (I live in an inner suburb of Boston, more info later).
My current thoughts for the menu:
Vegetarian Lasagne (my roommate makes an awesome one, so I'll get his advice)
Bread
Salad
A candied quince tart
Poached clementines
I'll probably add a dish or two to this, but I was thinking of keeping things simple and vegetarian-friendly. My roommates keep kosher, so I thought it would help avoid problems to not have any meat in the dinner whatsoever.
PS I've set comments to screened, in case you have something to tell me you don't want to tell Everybody.
ETA On bringing stuff! I wasn't planning to ask for contributions because most of you will be traveling, but I have been reminded that people might want to bring something. My roommate reminded me of these restrictions:
1)NO WALNUTS OR PECANS, my small roommate is allergic. Please check labels of dressings, etc, for walnut oil -- it's a lurker!
2) He's also lactose intolerant, so we need to know if milk, whey, and/or what kind of cheese are in dishes.
3) Sugar (my roommategingicat needs to know about this)
4) Raw rose fruits (she's allergic to these, too
5) Bell Peppers (she hates them)
6) Any nuts (my roommate Teddywolf hates these, and they're a common allergen)
Um. So, the poll:
