[greenbriar]

[Bluebear]

7. Lobster!

Unfortunately for the lobster fishermen, prices are way down and fuel costs are eating them up. :(

But it's down to $3.99 a pound here on the coast.

[greenbriar]

11. oh yum

I love lobster and butter

[anneboleyn]

8. Oooh, sounds good! We will probably have fast food of some sort tonight -- or pizza!

[jakem]

9. Got some green chile chicken enchiladas ready to bake!

a lil red wine, and we are all set!

[BigD_95]

10. My champagne is chilling too!

cant wait to pop it open!!!!!

[CatWoman]

12. PARTY AT GREENBRIAR'S!!!!

:)

[greenbriar]

13. come on over

I had thought about going to an election watch party, but we decided to stay home where we could control the TVs and be comfortable

some family is coming after they vote

[tnlurker]

14. My son and I are doing Superbowl party food

chips and dips, peanuts, nachos, cheese and ham on crackers and beer. maybe some hot wings.

[dannofoot]

15. Rack of Lamb

Mrs. D. and I only have it on the most special of occasions. Washed down with my aforementioned (upthread) bottle of Piper Sonoma Blanc de Noirs.

Leftover Halloween candy for dessert, if there's room.

[greenbriar]

16. I have never had lamb

what is it like?

[dannofoot]

26. I'd describe the flavor as...

...somewhat sweet (as far as any meat could be described thusly), mild, with just a touch of "game" flavor, but not "gamey." A touch of garlic and mint jelly make those flavors sing.

IMHO, if it's cooked past medium, toss all of that out and you end up with dry grey meat that tastes like a poorly seasoned pot roast.

Oh, and it's far more easily digested than beef or pork, and most cuts are far less fatty.

[AlCzervik]

17. my ass is getting fatter just reading this thread. Salad here.

[New Earth]

18. wish I had enough money for champagne....

I'll be *sipping* on a 40 oz., but with class :o

[goodgd_yall]

19. Pie in the oven

No special victory dinner, but I'm having victory apple pie.

[Kali]

48. 19 replies before PIE!!!!!

geez, people

[Neecy]

20. oh, that sounds good!

I'm going to an election night party and since it's so warm here today I'm smoking two racks of chicken to take.

Coffee will be my drink of choice tonight, because I want to be wide awake and alert when they proclaim PRESIDENT-ELECT OBAMA!

[ronnykmarshall]

21. Pizza and champagne!

Your dinner sounds better!

[rainbow4321]

29. LOL! I was just about to post the same....

Too funny. Just bought some Asti and put it in the fridge. And the only reason I am leaving the 'puter/TV tonight is to answer the door for the pizza delivery guy!

[MassLiberal]

45. Pizza here, too!

New Haven-style, which is my favorite.

[cjsmom44]

22. Yummy

Yum Can I come?

[StreetKnowledge]

23. In Honor of the retarded racists being tossed out....

Fried Chicken. B-)

Party food at my place. :D

[Yes We Did]

24. Steak, Salmon...

baby gold potatoes, green beans, broccoli, rolls & a strawberry torte

[amoreena]

25. Nachos with jalapenos

Oh God, last stolen election we had a big party with plenty to eat and drink, ready to celebrate. We even had a map on the wall to color the map blue. Afraid to do that again so we're keeping it small, just my husband and me. We'll be having homemade nachos with dark beer and champagne for when the states come rolling in.

[cali]

27. bizarre potluck. I'm doing pork with adobo and other stuff for a fillin

for tortillas and a smoked salmon pizza. We're also having all kinds of pates and cheeses, a big tossed salad, guacomole. There are about 15 of us, and we'll probably all end up sick as a dog with all this stuff.

[symbolman]

28. How about inviting some of us over? :)

We've lost everything, even the car and have been food banking for weeks, when we have bus fare.. Wish I was kidding :)

Hoping Obama will turn this all around, can't believe we spent a couple of hundred thousand fighting Bush since 2001 and are in this state of affairs now, paid for much needed medication with stacks of penny rolls Friday, I know first hand how grim it is for folks out there..

Don't mean to be captain bummer here, my drooling got the better of me :)

Take bite for us, eh? (I AM Happy for this day, every one is a gift!)

Go Obama!!

[greenbriar]

38. I am truly sorry

I would have you over in a heartbeat if I could

[symbolman]

39. Please post a picture?

and we'll simulate it here when we get a chance, and think of us all sitting together celebrating this hopefully great day :)

Sorry, probably shouldn't have posted, embarrassed now, but thanks for thinking of us, always enjoyed your posts here - let's enjoy a Win!

Thanks for thinking of us :)

[BamaTideFan83]

30. I want an invitation.

Love spiral cut ham . . . it's perfect for us lazy porkers. Ha. Ha. (Apologies to our vegetarian, Hindu, Islamic, and other members).

[MaryEllen9399]

31. my menu:

Breaded chicken
Stuffing
Corn
Corn Muffins
German Chocolate Cake (in honor of the nazi repukes who are about to get their asses handed to them)

[JackBeck]

32. I'll be providing the Mandarin cosmos.

My better half is the chef, and he's marinating flank steak right now, which we're having with corn and scallop potatoes.

[MadBadger]

33. Baked Ziti and Key Lime Pie Later. some beer as well (Sunset Wheat/Wisconsin Belgian Red)

[OneGrassRoot]

36. Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. n/t

[Lyric]

34. We are having a rather eclectic feast that consists of:

Buffalo wings
Steak fries
Four kinds of pie (apple, key lime, coconut cream, and banana cream--all made from scratch. OBAMA PIES! :))
Fresh veggies (celery, carrots, cauliflower, broccoli) and dip
Assorted chips/snacks

And to drink, champagne and chocolate martinis!

:9

[crazylikafox]

35. I went out shopping for coconut cream pie.

Had to go to two stores, but finally found one. Both stores sold out of one I wanted. Lots of other kinds of pie, but no coconut cream. Hope that was a good sign. Champagne on ice also. The liquor store was very festive today. Lots of happy customers.

[ladyVet]

37. Good ol' Southern comfort food.

Fried chicken, mashed potatoes, green beans, corn-on-the-cob, biscuits and gravy. Sweet potato pie for dessert, cause it's my favorite and apparently Obama likes it, too!

I've got a bottle of Bud (one of those big ones), and there are a couple of bottles of Guiness hiding in the back of the fridge, and my older boys might have a little white wine.

I'll either be partying hard, or crying in my beer.

[tedoll78]

40. Nixed the gumbo.

I'm having chinese delivery tonight instead, so that I don't have to clean.

Sizzling honey pepper steak, with tiramisu for dessert! :)

[TheCentepedeShoes]

41. Crockpot gumbo

and cornbread.

[libnnc]

42. Ribeye steak, salad, little red potatoes

and real French Champagne (our first bottle)

And Obama cupcakes for dessert!

[Booster]

43. I've got a craving for some PIE.

[TwilightGardener]

44. Wow, that sounds good. Loves me some ham. No big dinner planned, too busy

watching the coverage to cook.

[OwnedByFerrets]

46. Where's the Sweet Tater Pie??

[Left Is Write]

47. We'll probably stick with snack foods - cheese and crackers, quesadillas, that sort of thing.

I have to go to Girl Scouts between 6:00 and 7:45 mountain time, so I can't crack open and special beverages before I get home. We had some delicious wine, cheese and bread for lunch, but that'll be it until after Girl Scouts.

The last thing I want to do is head out to GS tonight, but I'm a co-leader, and I made a commitment of leadership I need to honor.

[DeschutesRiver]

49. Lasagna, summer corn, salad, homemade blackberry pie, homemade vanilla ice cream. nt

[EastTennesseeDem]

50. Two steak tacos, cinnamon crispitos, and a Cherry Coke

at my University Dining Hall. Sorry, but it's free. :shrug:
