End Update

Dinner at Thai Restaurant in Warrenville at 6:30 on Thursday, December 8th.

(Now called Montri Thai, used to be Araya Thai -- located at:
2S535 Route 59, Warrenville, IL 60555
(630) 836-9774
montrithai.com
(In a strip mall near Family Foods, Highway 59 and Batavia Ave.)

If you are under 18, be sure to let a parent know that they're welcome to come as well.

This will be a quieter TGIO--but I will have purple bars (of chocolate) and we can talk through some of the fun of November. There will be no singing.

Please RSVP if you can plan on coming on Thursday, December 8th. (If you can't make either, but really, really want a TGIO, let me know when you are free. We might be able to do a Caribou get-together in December, or try for something at another restaurant.)

This feels like a good year for celebrations.

This is still happening, so if you're interested, let me know (even tomorrow--this restaurant does a lot of carryout, but not so much eat-in so it shouldn't be a problem to add people.)

I am never gonna turn down an excuse for Thai food ---- but can't confirm yet....only replying because you made the meatloaf i cooked really unappetizing now :( lol

I would love to come, but unfortunately, during the week, it's really hard for me to get away all evening. ;) Especially since after I get off work, I have to come home and make dinner of my own for the rest of the family.

<3 But I'll see ya'll Saturday!

Since my daughter will miss the TGIO party on the 3rd, it would be great to let her participate in a NaNo celebration. And BONUS! I won't have to attempt to cook (or buy) anything and no one will have to pretend not to gag on whatever it is I make. Besides, I love Thai food (don't think Danielle does, but I can always stuff her with hot dogs prior).

Sounds good. By the way, my kids always loved the chicken satay -- basically chicken on a stick--and crag ragoons and the thai fried rice--even when they weren't into Thai food (although they all are now.)

Agggggh. Did you have to pick a day of the week? :( Not a weekend? Not a hope for me to get out there. A Saturday would be a go, a Friday pushing it... but. Have fun, loves.

Since the 3rd is on the weekend, I was trying to get those people who couldn't make the weekend.

Maybe make the first Journey meeting--which is a Saturday?

Alternately, are those who couldn't make it to the TGIO December 3rd actually also available for a celebration Dec 10th? (i.e., maybe it is not the day of the week but the specific date?)

For me it is not so much the day of the week, but the time (early afternoon) just doesn't work.

How about if everyone who is replying to this thread note two answers:
1. are you interested in Thai food on the 8th
2. are you available for dinner on the 10th?

askeladd

The 8th is probably out, but I won't know for sure until I check with my tutoring student for his schedule tonight.

"Dinner on the 10th" - do you mean "evening meal" or "hot meal served during the day" ;) ? If it's in the evening, then I would be able to come.

Evening meal (the third meal of the day). :-)

I would love to come, can't turn down Thai food, but I'm going to highschool to take a honor's placement test that day -.-;;
Anyway, I was there on Saturday, Hope you guys have a fun time though :D

I'll very likely be at the one on the 8th, but I might end up getting there a tad after the start time. I have to stop off at home first, and it's a little bit of a drive to get to the restaurant from home.

But I would definitely be able to attend something on the 10th.

Squiddish

I'll see what I can do, Katherine. If I can come, I might be a bit late! C:

NewMexicoKid

I'll be there, Katherine (on the 8th); thanks for organizing this.

Are we also doing a dinner on the 10th? Sounds like Janet, Paula and Joe are also available then; not sure about Heather. We might also consider opening this up to the Journey crowd.

YEAH!!! I can make the 8th for Thai.

I won't be able to make the 10th :)

Can't wait to meet you guys!

I tutor on Thursday nights so I can't make it for Thai, but I'm all for dinner with the group on the 10th. I think I can make that one. :) Just let me know ahead of time what restaurant so I can get an idea from them of what I can eat there.

NewMexicoKid

I'm so bummed! Change in plans for me. I won't be able to go tomorrow night. My husband has a union meeting for work and I don't have a sitter. Sorry :(
