Good God, is this a week away? Cool

Basel Cellars Rats: did y'all get my PM regarding payment? Any questions before you hit the road?

Sat. Night Soiree people: Sir Willy is awaiting your Soiree payments. If you haven't been getting Willy's emails, please let us know.

Walla Walla is really rolling out the red carpet for us. Smile

Who is shooting the documentary? Is Michael Moore available? Ken Burns? Quentin? Fellini? Sophia Coppola? Razz

Walla Walla Survivors -

Get on your mark, get ready, GOOOOOOOO!

Well, very soon anyway.

Anyone have any special wine requests? Cool We are bringing the big "box of doom", our aluminum wine carrier so there is room for some goodies.

Winetex,

When they ask you at security in the airport "what's in the box?" I double dare you to say it's the "Box of Doom."

Q:

I just sent the check this weekend.

Winetex:

Since you are wise in the ways of burgundy, I'd vote for one of those!

Queenie - no chance of that. Wink I just say, "please open it up. Nothing to see but some grape juice." Smile

Lafon - perhaps burgundy? Wink At least one...

I might have some of that kind of wine I could bring.

Those are the bottles with the sloped shoulders, right?

I might even have some Doritos that are ready to consume. Does anyone feel older Doritos may suffer with travel? That's why I haven't brought one to an offline to date.

As long as your car has A/C, your Doritos should be ok. Any vintage would work for me. YUM! DORITOS!

First of all...I know the 'Type' of Doritos you/we are talking about... Wink

Older Doritos travel fine from my understanding, as long as they're kept cool, and it may be recommended to let it/them stand for a min. of 24 hrs. before opening.

Hmmmmmmmmm...Doritos with cheese....Hmmmmmmmmmm

I've heard Doritos need plenty of air prior to serving!

Doritos typically don't have a lot of sediment, whoops - I mean crumbs, so even older Doritos should travel well Big Grin

Doritos and cheese might just do that to some people. Wink

I guess we'll have to bring some good cheese as well for some cheesy Doritos. Big Grin

I think it was PE who astutely mentioned "plenty of air 'prior' to serving," Big Grin but Seaquam, in an equally astute observation Big Grin, raises yet another question as to the aeration requirements "after" serving. Eek

Discuss amongst yourselves... Razz

Ya' know...Doritos are kind of a crap shoot!
