Seder 2019 Boston
Things to Buy contains things we need and do not have yet. Things We're Bringing is for things you want to bring. Feel free to move something from things to buy to things to bring and put your name next to it so we know someone has that. You can also add something not already on the list--this can be ingredients, toys, cooked dishes, or anything else you think up. Things to cook is a good place to write suggestions for dinner.
Add your name under People if you are planning on attending.
Dress to eat.
