eats?
Anyone want to feed a lovely blogger and her lovely husband (in the throes of moving) and possibly his lovely parents this coming Shabbat (September 9 and 10)?
To clarify, for the smart alecks in the crowd - I'm looking at you, persephone and uberimma - we are in search of local meals hosts. Please.
Update: No lovely parents-in-law this weekend. They are still lovely, but they will have to be lovely in New York for now. We now have plans for dinner (thank you ruth!), but a lunch invitation would be very much appreciated.
not sure how to keep this warm *on* shabbos, but la briute meals are my friend -- just keep them away from water! I had an exploded heat pack this past roadtrip, so I was surprised, sad, and quite hungry.
Sure! You can all come for both meals. We eat dinner at around 8 and lunch at 12. I'll even make a brisket in your honor. You don't mind the walk, do you?
Sure, but I doubt I'm what you had in mind. ;)
See, I thought so! (Stopped Aaron from inviting you... not that you aren't invited, but you know what I mean.)
Want to come on Friday night? We are not here on shabbat afternoon, so we can't have you then.
But please come on Friday--we'd love to have you!
How far are you willing to walk? Do you need a second lunch invite to match the 2 for Friday night? Miriam can vouch for me that I haven't poisoned anyone yet. ;-) But we aren't usually back from shul until 12:30 or 1:00 pm.
LC - I was actually about to update this post again - we caved in and bought a challah, some cheese, and some veggies for lunch. On my own, I'd probably accept your invitation anyway, but I don't think "long walk to have lunch with people we don't know" is high on Julian's list of "stress-free Shabbat."
*sigh*
Awww, after Miriam told me about how Julian walked out to have a meal with them at least once, but she wasn't sure *you* would want to walk so far . . .
Oh, well, I tried :)
We've known Julian for 13 years now (scary thought, huh?) so we don't qualify as "people they don't know." And I know he came Friday night when he could come by T just before Shabbos and only have to walk back. I think he came for lunch once or twice too, but I don't really remember. It has been, after all, almost 6 years since we left Boston.
Miriam - Julian and I came together for lunch at least once when you were still living around here. I think #2 (not going to post your kids' names online) was still in a car seat/baby carrier then, though I could be misremembering and that could have been #3.
13 years and two weeks, no? And walks home from Shabbos meals are among some of our best memories...
