What are y'all cooking for Election Day?

[LaydeeBug]

Usually, I'd throw a pot roast in the slow cooker because of all of the running I would do. It doesn't get any more American than Yankee Pot Roast.

But that's a little much for me now...I am thinking of steaks on the grill (it's supposed to be nice )

I thought of Mexican (things with hot sauce) and to honor "taco truck on every corner" lol

What are you all doing?

1. Too far away for me to know.

[Yonnie3]

3. I hadn't thought about it yet.

I think Mexican is a good idea. We will both be off for a few days as of 8 am election day, so an election spread together sounds good.

EDIT: Saving the steaks for the celebration.

4. Lobster tail! We will be celebrating a Clinton victory! NT

8. Had one yesterday, and may finish the pair off tomorrow;

not gonna wait!

5. I feel like I want to make tacos or fettuccine or an asian stir-fry -- tastes brought to us by

immigrants, who have enriched our culture and blessed our lives.

15. You are clearly a soul mate of Calvin Trillin, who thinks Thanksgiving

should be celebrated by eating spaghetti carbonara, not turkey.

17. Calvin's idea sounds perfect (and perfectly appropriate) to me.

6. Brunswick stew tomorrow

and that stuff is always better the second day.

7. OH GEE, don't know where I'll be,

friends house in suburbs or my home along the river. 'Feels' like pizza!

9. Food for Election night party!

"Nasty Woman" cocktails, and a cheese cracker plate

My favorite snack: cream cheese with sweet/hot/fruity sauce poured over w/water crackers. Easy.

10. Nice. Simple spread that sounds like fun. I still haven't decided. nt

23. Dirty martinis

would hit the spot.

12. I think all I'll be able to manage is Thai takeout, I think I'll be busy all day.

I volunteered to drive anybody who needs a ride to the polls from 8:00 a.m.-8:00 p.m. My polling place is literally across the street from my home (the church is 1021, my address is 1034), so I've signed up to be on call to drive anybody who needs a ride.

My favorite Thai place has an awesome tofu & veggies in a spicy peanut sauce which is to die for. YUM!

13. Tourtière

Because nothing says "America!" like French Canadien meat pie!!

(Or, should I call it "Freedom pie"??)

Besides, it's all over but the crying. I voted 3 weeks ago (thank you California).

14. Fried Chicken

I'm putting some baby lima beans and a hamhock in the crock pot before I go to bed. I set the dial to low and the beans will be ready in morning. I will fry up a chicken for lunch, maybe some pasta salad and sliced ripe tomatoes. Then we can snack on the cold fried chicken and pasta salad while we watch the election results. Might make some ice cream. I have some Mexican powder cookies that would go well with a dish of homemade vanilla ice cream.

19. That sounds like a great menu!

Can I come over to your house?

21. Slice that steak up

and add it to some tortillas and salsa. Steak taco trucks on every corner.
