Brandon and I will bringing some slightly spiked punch, filtered water, paper plates, cups, utensils, and paper towels.
I’m open to bringing anything that is needed or something to add some variety. If nothing suggested maybe just bring chicken from heb, bean dip and chips. Although I am also open to cooking, just nothing is coming to mind right now.
Sounds like fun, and it’s been too long since I’ve been at an AFM event. I’ll bring a dish and and a plastic bottle of liquor. I’ll spare everyone from my cooking and pick something up from Central Market. Cherdon (or anyone) lemme know what to pick up and consider it done. Thanks!
