Next gathering - Sat 2/26

Next gathering will be pot luck on Saturday evening around 5pm at 84 Westover Pkwy, Norwood. Come early, stay late, no problems. Be aware, Westover Pkwy is devided by a brook, so if all you see are odd numbered houses, you can go either way to get to the even side of the road.

I'm in. Will the brook hold a whitewater boat. It may entice Lora. :lol:

If we get any melting (ha, ha), the brook will be cranking.
Here is last Spring.

I thought my previous commitment would keep me from being able to attend but it got scheduled early in the evening so I think I can get there by 8:00. I presume there will still be people around. I guess I'll plan to bring a desert like brownies or something since I'll be late.

Knowing this crowd, I think your presumption is correct.

You didn't leave a moment too soon. We got to the "sacrifice" part of the evening and it turns out we're pretty short on virgins these days.

Good seeing everyone! Great food, but now I'm getting really itchy to get back in the water, and we're still years from all this snow and ice melting. Where's that global warming I was promised???

Thanks, Ron. I had a great time and you have a beautiful home.
It was nice meeting everyone and I'm looking forward to getting
out and paddling with everyone.

Thank you, Bea, for your recipe. :D :D Here is mine.

Teriyaki Chicken Wings


3 lbs. chicken wings (split, w/ tips removed)
1/2 C. vegetable oil
1/2 C. soy sauce
1/6 C. molasses
3 cloves of garlic, chopped finely
1 small onion, chopped finely
1 Tbsp. dry mustard
1 Tbsp. Accent

Combine all marinating ingredients and mix well.
Place chicken and marinating mixture in an air tight container,
and shake well. Store in refrigerator and let marinate for at least 24 hours,
shaking occasionally during that time.
Arrange chicken in a single layer, in a baking dish, and cover with all the marinade.
Bake in a 375 degree oven for 90 minutes, turning at half time.

Enjoy.

Ron,
Thanks for letting me come to your party. I was good. Nice to see everyone and to catch up a bit. I realized this morning that all of us should have focused our energy somehow to have spring come early this year. All I could think of last night was kayaking,meatballs and beer. Thanks again!! Ken

Nice seeing some familiar faces and meeting new folks. I'm sure I'll forget everybody's name when it comes time to paddle. Thanks Ron for hosting, and Chris for the whitewater advice.

Thanks for putting the get together, together. I really enjoyed watching the slide show and the food was great. Wish I could have stayed a little longer but I was a "we" that night.

Tracey, what are the dimensions of the baking dish you use for your wings?
