6. That's what I want to know!

Change the merlot to shiraz (I'm allergic to merlot -- go fig) and set an extra place.

On edit -- I'll bring a bottle of my favorite rum and 2 Romeo y Julieta Churchills for later!

7. Rum??????

as in Myers Rum??????

The nectar of the Gods. :bounce:

[Geoff R. Casavant]

8. Even better

Pusser's Rum, the only rum served to Her Majesty's Royal Navy for over 300 years -- still made in the same wooden stills used when Nelson himself drank the stuff.

If you can find it, get it -- a close to single malt scotch as rum can come.

3. Don't forget Yellow Cake!

w/ Chocolate Icing spelling "Niger". Candles would be nice as well!

4. Wonderful menu

I haven't decided yet on Fitzmas dinner....

I thought about doing a fine, fine t-bone on the grill but if the indictments happen on Monday, well, we're expecting snow and sleet so that would be a bit uncomfortable.

Maybe stuffed flank steak (stuffed with mushroom and herb crouton stuffing) asparagas with hollandaise sauce, twice baked potato with carmelized onion topping.

Merlot

Orange sherbert

Brandy

and, against my Doctor's advice, a big ugly Dominican cigar!

5. Mine will be a night out at fav restaurant: Rigsbys (little extra cash

these days after supporting so many progressive causes)

I will start out with the roasted beets w skortakalia then proceed with a fine vegetarian pasta dish, accompanied by a bottle of Pelligrino and Terre de Tufi. I might even attempt to save room for a Valcheron Glace! I will end the evening with a cappucino + biscotti (so I can stay awake and read DU) while mod hubby sips on a fine grappa.

9. I'll be serving Lame Duck (as is the tradition in our house) n/t
