Post #32 - January 31st, 2014, 9:45 amOK friends Onj4ever puts us at 36ish when we count in our musicians, so I'm going to say that's it so we all have some elbow room in my not so huge house.
You are welcome to be on "standby" if others drop out.
Thanks for understanding.

I was thinking of making a King cake, to improve on the type brought to the dessert exchange: puff pastry with an almond filling.

Post #39 - February 12th, 2014, 1:32 pmI'm going to have to change my dish- Bennison's isn't selling their paczkis until the 24th *sad trombone*
I'll do something else and let you know!
ETA: I'm going to make bananas foster cheesecake, and I'm going to attempt fried pickles. I've never deep fried anything on my own before, so we'll see how they turn out.
