Like many of you, I'm planning a party at my house Election night. When the grocery clerks saw what I bought, they asked "when does the party start?". I replied, "as soon as they call this election for Obama. This party has been 8 years in the making".
So here's what's on my menu:
Alcoholic Drinks (oh yeah)
--French Champagne, in honor of Barack's successful European tour
--California Champagne, in honor of my home state's 55 EV's
--Baileys, in honor of Barack's Irish heritage
--Sam Adams beer in honor of one of the founding fathers
Foods:
Main course will be tempeh burgers. (Tempeh is a staple in Indonesia)
Arugula Salad !!!!
Watermelon (in honor of African American tradition)
Pineapple, from Hawaii
And finally, just in case its a long night:
Coffee from Java
Looking forward to a great night....just hope they don't call this thing before the party starts!
Thanks for reading my first diary. What's on your menu?
