Default Victoria June get together

Hi ladies (and gents that may be lurking)!!

May's get together was so much fun, I thought we'd get started on June.

I am away in PEI from June 12 to 17 but around for the rest of the month.

Any (additional) takers?

Julie

I'll let y'all know how my doggie-bagged ribs turn out after I braise 'em for an hour or two, and dress 'em up - gotta be better than they were tonite! Next time, I think I'll go for the beef ribs!! Also, I like my crispy-tender veggies a tad less crispy and a tad more tender! Oh well - the chunk of beef rib Jude gave me was delicious and I really liked the mushrooms too - too bad they're not on the "sides" menu.

I've got a couple of shows in June, but they're on weekends so shouldn't interfere with whatever day we settle on.

Glenda

PS - how did you get home and get this thread up so fast? I just had another peek and nope, you didn't start it before we met!!!

I'm in PEI from June 16-21 sooooooo.... any other of those days is fine for me.

How about 24/25? Mondays often get messed up for me...especially after being away for almost a week.

PEI from June 12th-17th now 16th-21st? Interesting...!

Tuesdays work well for me, so I'm voting for the evening of the 24th for now.

Man, it's tough, this calendaring!

24th is good for me. I'm putting it in in pencil for now until the others weight in.

Just back from a postcard show on the mainland - haven't done the bookkeeping yet but hopefully made more than expenses!!! At the moment the 24th looks OK - the Wednesday would probably be better, but I can manage Tuesday. Jude, my friend saved me another of Karen's columns from the paper - I'll put it aside for you!

And yes, the ribs were MUCH better after a couple of hours in a slowish oven with a wee tad of broth, then a brush-full of homemade bbq sauce (not induction friendly, but lower carbs than commercial!)

Allo, my dear ladies (so far)!

Got it in my head today to catch up with y'all...we are still on for Tuesday the 24th at Montana's (for lack of any suggested alternatives)?

Looking forward to hearing from ya, it's been too long.
