Latest revision as of 23:43, 26 November 2015

Mako and Mika would like to host a Thanksgiving dinner at our new house! If you'd like to join us, please add your name and any food/drink items you'll be bringing below. We have a large kitchen, so feel free to come by early and cook your food here.

Place[edit]

Directions, parking, and mass transit information is available online here: http://extraordinary.leastsquar.es/

Timing[edit]

If you're not cooking at our place, plan to arrive around 2:00, so we have time to heat up and do one of those big lunch/dinner meals people do. You're also welcome to cook at our place - just let us know in advance. We should be wrapped up by early evening.

Dishes and other stuff you'll be bringing[edit]

If anybody has allergies or other dietary restrictions, please note them here or email Mika&Mako.

A few of us are vegetarian, so vegetarian items will be very much appreciated!

Here's a full list with pictures from a previous thanksgiving that shows how almost every food item was vegan.

You can add items that you want to make and add your names by the items.
