OKAY - I get it. Formal wear optional. Really though I was hoping to see MM in some of that sweet, sweet, vintage getup. I've even been watching for leisure suits at Value Village. I think I could rock the wide lapels and bell bottoms. Maybe I'll find a pattern and learn to sew.
In other news, the current menu shows Meatball party on Friday night (this year we may be able to hold it outdoors and have music!!) and the Chili for dinner on Saturday. Food prices really shot up this year (like into WOW zone, so I'm pressuring Erica to make it 50% tastier. If she delivers, we may explode with deliciousness. I am not asking for butter tarts again since they sortof missed the mark last year.
With one week until payment due I have received payment for a little over half the spots awarded. Here's hoping we see a flood of payments this week. Otherwise the waitlist will be very happy. FWIW, Some payments are with our US Payment Services, and I have one cheque to deposit, so its not as bad as it looks at first blush. I'll ask guest services to email out reminders to folks we're still waiting on.
Today I have to send a cheque to the venue, and I need to order schwag soon. Cash in, cash out. Its the ying and yang of it.
