| 615.4 | Yes, maybe | MRKTNG::GODIN | Whisper words of wisdom--let it be | Mon Jan 07 1991 09:42 | 5 |
| Another tentative yes. I'm hoping to be able to attend the concert,
and would love to have a "group" to sit with.
Sounds like you need some bread to accompany the soup....

| Great, that would be fine to bring bread and desserts. So now we have
1 yes and 3 maybes.
Also, men are welcome at this dinner. I didn't say that in the base
note because I didn't think I needed to...but where no men have signed
up I was wondering if you were making an assumption that this dinner
was for women only or something.
Cheers,
Laura

Well, so far there has been a small response to the dinner party before
Dale and Justine's benefit concert. Guess there is some reservations
about my ability as a cook? ;-) Maybe I should tell you about the
delicious lunch I'm eating as I write this note...steamed veggies with
lentils in spicey tomato sauce topped with a cheddar cheese and
monterey jack jalapeno sauce...yum, yum.
Anyway, I have decided to make a veggie soup and a seafood soup for the
pre-concert dinner. I'm still debating on the veggie soup, but I'm
leaning toward a mushroom/barley (although I'm still toying with the
idea of black bean soup, which is not for the faint of heart or for
those who don't like spicey food). Folks who are signed up for dinner can
send me mail to lobby for their preference :-)
And I will make New England Clam Chowda. In my not so humble opinion,
I make the best chowda on earth. Pretty arrogant, yes? Well, sign up
for the dinner party and judge for yourself.
And remember, the concert is a benefit for Renewal House, a battered
women's shelter in Roxbury, MA. Donations of $15 or more will be
matched by DEC.

Laura,
Is it ok if folks who want to come but don't want to sign up or be
listed here send you Mail? Sometimes I don't sign up for things 'cause
I don't want to see my name on a "list."
I think we'll have a pretty good turnout, and I'm really getting
excited about this -- sorry I'll be too nervous to eat some of Laura's
fine cooking -- someone else will have to perform next time she invites
us all to dinner :-)
Justine

| Sure, it's fine if people want to come but don't want their name on a
list. If so, they should send me mail and let me know that they don't
want to be posted on the list. It would be helpful, at least for
cooking purposes, to have a head count...otherwise I will just cook for
300 and figure that the bases are covered! ;-)

| Count me in for the pre-concert party. I'm not much of a cook (hey,
I almost burned my kitchen down once with my first attempt at cooking
beef stew) so I'll bring either dessert of potato salad.

| Great party and a great show by Justine and Dale. There were many
DECies in attendance. Very energizing evening! Thanks to Laura for
the use of her house. The food was great but we may all be a little
heavier especially the dog! ;-)

I actually ATE the most and LOST two pounds!!!! Guess who
spent the night in the loo? Just got into work as I had to
sleep this AM to recover from the all-nighter that was pulled
on me.
The food was great along with the voice and sounds from Justine
and Dale. And I got to help Renewal House!

| Thanks again Laura for the use of your house and for the lovely
soup and salad. (all the different breads and the desert were
terrific too!)
I especially enjoyed revisiting a neighborhood and a church
that I had lived in and known about 14 years ago.
The concert was really super!

Thanks to all of you who came out to hear us and support Renewal House.
I especially enjoyed the sing-alongs. I can hardly wait for the
Womannotes "Talent Show" that we'll have during our big splash
weekend celebration in June!
It really meant a lot to see so many of you there.
Thanks!
Justine

| 615.21 | wish I could sing | HPSRAD::LAM | | Wed Jan 30 1991 17:58 | 11 |
| I wish I knew the songs so I can sing along with the audience. But I do
know the last song "Circle game". I'm not familiar with folk songs
unless they were by Harry Chapin. Maybe I can put in a request for your
next concert, Justine?
Laura's yellow split pea soup was outstanding, have to ask her for a
recipe.
Bonnie, it was so nice to see you again.
|
| 615.22 | It was great having you all over for dinner! | SONATA::ERVIN | Roots & Wings... | Thu Jan 31 1991 15:43 | 27 |
| >>Laura's yellow split pea soup was outstanding, have to ask her for a
>>recipe.
Thanks for the compliment, Caroline. Here's the recipe:
Laura's Yellow Split Pea Soup
Make soup stock:
If you are going to cook a ham, simmer it first in 1/2 water and 1/2
apple juice. Save the apple juice/water stock to use for soup stock.
Or, get a ham bone and cook it down in water and apple juice. I guess
I used about 6 cups of apple juice and 6 cups of water to 1 and 1/2
bags of dry peas.
Once you have the stock ready, add the split peas. Cook on low heat for
several hours...basically until the peas get soft and dissolve.
p.s. Laura does not consider soup made with meat stock a vegetarian
soup. Just wanted to qualify that two soups were severed...one veggie,
one non-veggie, since I said in my original party note that I would
make a veggie soup!
