Find the group!

I was super shy too - we met our first BNers at Wrigley and then there was Hoot Island ... the rest - as they say is history. We have met some great BN people over the last year at these gatherings. (Some several times and places).

I can bring some deviled eggs.

And, I recently made some frozen Margarita-flavored jello (nonalcoholic).
I'm thinking I can try an alcoholic version... Never made jello shots,
but I'm gonna try! :o
its easy melt the geletin like normal but instead of one cup of cold water at the end use 1 cup of booze, this makes em pretty strong, 3/4 cup booze and a 1/4 cup water for a nice mello mix, but me likes em strong :D
Thanks, Milo. What booze is best? Vodka? I just bought lime jello and island pineapple. They were out of margarita-flavored. :-?

Plus, the grocery had a sale on chicken breasts, $1.99 a pound, so I bought 3 packs. Gonna marinate and bring them for the grill.

Is anyone bringing a grill?

Also got Tostito Scoops chips and salsa, mild and medium. :D :D :D

I'm getting excited! 8)
we have the grill covered. also will ahve shrimp, and other goodies there for the tastin.
as for alcohol!!! the sky is the limit who knows what will appear.

You can make the jellp shots with the appropriate booze that goes with the flavor, IE ive used tequila in the margarita flavored jello and its awesome, some other favs are so-co and black cherry jello (my personal fav) and blue rasberry jello with parrot bay original, skys the limit when you mix booze woth powdered geletin, if it sounds good, it probably is and even if it isnt it will still make you tipsy :pirate: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I'm either REALLY shy, or REALLY outgoing. (see webshots).

But for some reason, I've never been good at approaching large groups of people. We go to our local PHC events and have never once met anyone in our club. They all already know each other, and we can't seem to find a way to "break in" to the conversation.

I often wonder if i should shower more [smilie=blush.gif]
This is my first time meeting these cats as well. Lookin forward to a great time... I dont bite, well there was that one time, but i swear i was asked to do it ... hahhaaa, come find the party

I had an uncle who used to live in Jacksonville and was a Gator fan. He used to call the FSU Seminoles those "half-assed Indians: the 'Semi-Holes!'

Anyway, see y'all in Tallahassee on Saturday. I'll be the one in the tropical shirt! :wink:

Just caught up to the computer again.

Listening to RM and the Savannah Daydreamin show and she played the interview with Jimmy from Orlando Margaritaville.

Jimmy sure is hoarse. He said he was heading for a day of rest to get ready for the Tallahassee show. He was getting a massage.

Hmmmmm. Nice!

See y'all later today. I could use a massage too, but I think I'm heading for a trek around a garden in Tally!!

Fins way UP!!

Thats because...with the exception of the minority (and some of my fav BN'rs).... most Gator fans never attended college and have yet to learn any manners.



This is a fact btw...not just my garnet and gold blood boiling..... :evil: there was a survey done a few years ago....
