Having previously hosted an rfc cookin, I'm sure my new place will be suitable. I'll be moving from this tiny aparment to a house in mid August. My preference would be to wait until fall for a full-fledged cook-in. In the meantime, let's do the restaurant thing and start planning a cookin. How's that sound? readah |

Do join us for dinner, though and we can work out the details. Course, I'll have to ask Charlie to kindly send his excellent cookin lists (needed items, to do, etc.) Already checked with DH and my brother (who lives with us) and they're all for it. My husband might even make his yummy Curry Chicken. Maybe I can talk my brother into making a gourmet calzone. readah |

I can offer no thoughts on either, since I've never even heard of them, but I am up for some good Cajun. You two can duke it out. What night works better? During the week or weekend? I posted two dates towards the end of August, the 25th and 27th-- a Wednesday and a Friday. Just let me know. BTW, I'll be out of town for the next 10 days, so feel free to email me directly with a date, time and place. Looking forward to a dinner and southwest cookin planning session. Ciao, readah |
