I'm a "definite!" There was a possibility I'd be out of town that week, but there were too many things going on here. Joyanna will join me, I'm sure.
I'll see if I can at least bring her friend Sarah along, hopefully also my friend Martina (Sarah's mom) and possibly also her younger daughter , Angela. With 5 kids spread out in age, their schedule is never certain in advance, but I'll make sure she at least has it penciled in! I'll check with Theresa, too. Both she and Martina "should" be online with us, but so far I've only convinced them to participate in our seed and plant swaps...
Gita, if you have an extra 'Bonnie' spider, i'll be happy to grow it on for a bit and find it a home, maybe in Joyanna's classroom. I appreciate your bringing one for me, too!
I'm not sure what I'll bring for food... I will check the list to see what might "fit." Hmm, how about a rice dish... I could bring it in the rice cooker, which stays warm pretty well. Could be tex-mex, with salsa and corn and red beans, or it could be something more random, maybe a multigrain dish (rice, barley, quinoa) with onion, eggplant, and "hot & spicy" basil that we created last spring. Either of those would be gluten-free, for those who might want that option. Joyanna and I might be practicing for the Frederick Fair, also, so you can expect something baked (and probably not gluten free), like pumpkin bread.
