sereneYou are invited to an Orphans' Thanksgiving at our house. If you haven't got family nearby, or just want someplace welcoming to be for T-day, please join us.
Thursday, November 25, 2004
Dinner is at 3pm -- arrive any time between noon and 9pm, stay as long as you like. If we know you, you're welcome to spend the night. (There are two full-sized guest beds and a king-sized air mattress, in addition to tons of floor space.)
Our planned menu follows, subject to change on Serene's whim. This isn't a potluck, so you don't have to bring anything. However, if you don't see something on the menu that just says Thanksgiving to you, you can either bring it yourself or tell us about it and we'll try to fix it for you.
There's a TV in the bedroom -- if you need to follow some sporting event or other, you may do so in there, but there's not a lot of seating in there (there's a king-sized bed and an armchair).
RSVP is very helpful, but not essential. If you need our telephone number and/or address, then you will need to RSVP in order to get those.
Planned menu (any/all items may be substituted with something Serene feels more like making):
