    Oh Maggie - I think your Christmas party is going to be delayed. I just heard the latest - 10"-20". OMG!!!

    I was just talking to my brother in NC, and they have about 6" and the roads are impassable. He's supposed to be leaving for FL in the morning. Maybe - maybe not!

    Everyone out there that's getting this storm - please be careful.

    I'd like a dirty dead snowman please. This comes from a Michael Vartan fan website. He used to be on a show called ALIAS. It was my favorite! For the last ALIAS, we had a party where we dressed up as characters and had show related drinks and food. Many of the drinks were thought up by the webmistresses of the VartanHo website, but we did come up with a few of our own. We dressed as characters and said farewell to the show as a group. The bar's theme reminded me of that, so I went and found the recipe. Even though no one probably knows the reference to the dirty dead snowman from the show, I'll buy anyone in the bar who would like one a drink. I can hope we get some real snow around here. If we do, I may just break out my ALIAS DVDs and watch a few episodes! My avatar of Sydney Bristow comes from that show too!

    Time helps the sadness subside, but the memories remain forever.

    A Dirty Dead Snowman?
    Coffee (or vanilla in a pinch) ice cream
    Milk
    Kahlua to taste (about 1 oz.)
    Grenadine

    Do

    Make a *thick* milkshake with the ice cream (using vanilla will make the Snowman less "dirty"), milk and kahlua. (If using coffee ice cream, can leave out the kahlua for a nonalcoholic version.) Pour into a tall glass and splash the grenadine "blood" on top. Happily stick a plastic garnish sword into the top of the drink. Don't cry over it, though.

    Bartender's Note*

    A hell of a lot more appealing than the one on the show!

    *not me!

    DONE!

    POM,

    LOL, I just forecast the weather, you put the faces to it!

    Yes, please be careful, everyone.
    DONE!

    CM, Coffee, half shot, hope you feel better!

    DONE!

    PM,

    I still have my moments, I get urges to eat, get it all together and just lose my appetite.

    I bought chinese for lunch and didn't touch it!

    Hope everyone else is O.K.!

    Hi, RICHARD I'm still alive. The sore throat is gone, (the slushies worked!), but I'm starting to get the sniffles. In Cabot, we're due to get up to 4" of snow overnight, just right for making snowmen! May I have a hot cup of coffee with Bailey's in it?

    Well, bundle up and I'll get the fire going.

    One coffee and Bailey's?

    DONE!

    Yes, we have pretty much ruled out the party - it's the first time in over 25 years our Christmas Open House has been affected by weather, so I guess we were due. We're going to make a mad round of phone calls and tell everyone to come over Sunday for the Ravens game (which has been moved to 4:15 from 1pm) instead. We have lots of food and drink - y'all are welcome!

    They've upped the forecast to 16-24 inches....

    One big, tall DOTD for me please. I'm off the booze, but hey, this is cyber.

    Pinot - 40-75 people???? How do ya feed a crowd like that???? I could never do it - mind you I can't cook either.

    Gee, at this time of year I really miss Mario. He used constantly make me laugh, running around in his diaper, hanging from the rafters and throwing food.

    Orc, why don't you sit down here beside me. I could use come company.

    Richard, are you going to be Santa and can I sit on your lap and talk about.....
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Hey you, don't tell me there's no hope at all -
    Together we stand
    Divided we fall.

    I laugh, therefore? I am.

    Slick-feeding them is easy-spiral sliced ham, rolls, big veggie pasta creations, slaw/salad concoctions, lots of munchies with plenty of beer, wine, egg nog and desserts. I'll tell ya, when that ham hits the table, it's mayhem! You'd think these people were never fed!

    Come on over Richard!

    By the way, the weathermen didn't lie - we're getting pounded with snow! We've got upwards of a foot so far...

    Sure is pretty tho - isn't it. :

    It's hard to tell how much we have gotten so far since it's drifting so bad, but close to a foot. I hear the worst is yet to come this afternoon. Haven't seen any snowplows yet, but that would probably be an effort in futility at this point.

    I'll have a double hot chocolate please. I need some extra warming this morning.
