    I would love milk but I can drink oj if everyone else does. I will bring my own oatmeal or cereal for all 3 days. I don't think we need anything for Sunday. I will have to leave nice and early on Sunday so once again I will have to skip the Sunday buffet, like I did last year.

    I have LOTS of hot chocolate mix already made up and i can bring that for everyone. Who has the kahlua?

    How did I not know we got in trouble for the booze last year?? What happened? Do I live under a rock? And here I was already planning on a 6 pack of individual margaritas.

    I didn't answer the question, got all sidetracked. I am good with bagels, OJ. Are we doing chips and dip and soda in the afternoon again? I'm up for the brunch on Sunday too.

    I've been meaning to ask if anyone is interested in a turtle cake. Kind of like a brownie, but with lots of nuts and chocolate and caramel. It's really rich so that would go well with the milk. I didn't know if I should with all the dieters. I've been craving making one but that is not something I can have in a house with 2 people!
    Or we could do veggies and be slightly healthier. Just cause I have no self control doesn't mean...

    oh ladies, learn from a pro.. either use plastic insulated cups with lids, or what I do a diet coke bottle with a nipper in it..no beer cans/bottles.

    Rumor has it "I was in charge of the Fall Palooza" so that means I was in charge of the alcohol permit that we were told we must have to have alcohol in the conference room. We just hid it better and didn't keep it out anymore. Do you remember reading about the flying fish? We did that too. HA

    No turtle cake for me. Veggies would be nice .

    Re: Important Question for those of you attending Shackapalooza:

    Since it would be tough for me to bring any food, is there a Walmart or some type of store where I can purchase my share of "dieting food?"

    Also, is there a Starbucks or coffee house near by where I can get an iced coffee or would we have ice in our rooms.

    Yes we go to WalMart 5 times a day I think. I have no idea about Starbucks since I don't drink coffee. Maybe Chris would know. There are ice machines all over the hotel.

    We got in trouble for having alcohol at Fall Palooza. Not Spring. Sorry if I confused anyone!!! It was Sherri's fault. She neglected to get a liquor permit. Chris offered to whip them one up out of some patterned paper and rubber stamps....but I don't think they were amused.

    Kathy, I think your turtle cake sounds yummy. If you want to make it, then by all means bring it!! Just because some of us are dieting doesn't mean nobody can bring any bad food! I have learned to have willpower, and when I don't I just take it all back off later. Life happens!

    Kathy--I have been thinking about what to do for the afternoons. In the past, we have had SOOO many snacks, that many times the chips and pretzels didn't get eaten.

    This is what I'm thinking...you all tell me if you agree or disagree. I'm thinking Thursday I'm not going to order ANYTHING--for either the morning OR the afternoon. So they will just keep us stocked with water. Then Friday I was going to do chips OR pretzels, and then Saturday I was going to do the opposite thing.

    This year they have "nachos" listed on the menu with chips and pretzels. I think that's new. I need to ask them about that. Usually you always get a dip of some kind with the chips OR the pretzels, so I'm wondering if nachos means tortilla chips with a cheese dip?? I'm going to ask...............

    I don't think we ever had them give us soda. It was either iced tea or lemonade. We get our own soda out of the machines because it's cheaper. The last couple of times I think we even skipped the iced tea and lemonade because we had determined in the past that nobody really drank it.

    HOWEVER---if anyone would like either, I would be happy to order it. Just let me know.
