They usually have cheese platters or things like that at the grocery store, so that might be the best option at this point.

I'm not sure that's possible.
Omnis, if you haven't gone yet, frozen fruit goes over really well at these types of things. I try to soak it in prosecco and then freeze it, but you don't have time for that.

“Not dead yet!”
I'm not sure that's possible.
Remember the lime green Texas with the platinum blonde? Next night featured black and white puss print with again, a lime green cummerbund and cream colored, raffia-heeled wedges.
There were some egregious misuses of sequins. A cocktail dress with motorcycle boots and a formal pantsuit with flip-flops. Some serious lacks of foundation garments.
There were also some really gorgeous gowns and cocktail dresses too, so it was a pretty nice balance, all things considered.
I looked kind of eggplantish, but the Girls had a good time coming out to play. I'm not accustomed to being quite so... lush.

I have just finished my paper on new Alzheimer's treatments for my psych. class.
It wasn't a particularly long or hard paper, but I just was NOT into it. At all.
Nevertheless, it is done, pending Aims checking over my in-text citations to make sure they're in APA format.

Huh, i prefer rice cooked on stovetop, apparently. I have now given up on my rice cooker as it tends to burn the rice on the bottom and leaves it super dry. Might just be that it is old and defective, but good to know that i prefer the stovetop alternative.

Omnis, you can probably get one of those cold storage bags at the market, a bag of ice, and some sort of frozen snack.I have one of those, and that's what I did. Half a bag of ice (they only sell 10# bags, and the bag just wasn't that big). Jello cups, and Klondike bars. The bag leaked a lil bit. Some. Ok, I'm guessing a fair amount, as there wasn't all that much water in it at the end of the night. But there was still some ice, which impressed me for an insulated shopping bag. We had the Klondike bars first (ya for dessert first!) and good thing. They were messy, but lots of yum all around. Others brought various cheeses, and berries, and grapes, and french bread. Lots of healthy yum, and good conversation. I took the spot on the blanket with the most obstructed view (figuring, heck, I've seen theater before, I usually listen more than anything), plus I was last to sit on the blankets. At one point GGG started to saddle over to sit next to me when other person got up to use the loo, but then GGG saw the view and was like "can you see there?" I demonstrated my lean left/lean right to see around the pole. Not thinking that might have been a GREAT entry to move down to her part of the blanket. :: kicks self :: End of the night, once again we were parked in different corners. Plus she was carrying cooler-with-no-wheels with carpool buddy. They were trying to walk slow to keep pace with me, but I said, "go ahead, before your arms fall off". CPB said ok nice to meet you, and picked up the pace, and GGG looked over her shoulder and said "call you soon!". Voila. Fini.
Still have headache. But had a nice time.
