This Party is a Food Party

There are no pictures from me yet, but this party is definitely a food party.

Some parties are movie parties, some are drinking parties, and some are music parties. This one is all about food. And the Great State of Texas.

There will be both brisket and fajitas, home made tortillas (flour and corn), chili (vegetarian and meaty), and a slew of vegetables and desserts including (but not limited to) pecan pie, cherry cream pie, and cookies.

With any luck, we’ll have a licensed bartender to mix some drinks, and we can experiment with some of my home made schnapps and infusions.

I have high hopes for this party, and will be posting pictures as they become available.

Oh, and snow or no snow, blizzard or not, I WILL be barbecuing the meat. If I can barbecue in Texas during a hurricane, a little snow isn’t going to stop me.

I hope you can make it!

Not my cat, but this will be my cat’s racist costume for the party. Credit to portlandmercury.com

Almost party time “you all”

Good news everyone! We finally received our bulk order of party hats and cowboy boot mugs!

We’re Back!

President Tedwardson welcomes you!

We were always coming back.

Hey guess what everyone!? Remember how way back in the year 2011 we had an awesome blog and it was called the Brambleberry Tipsycake Initiative? But then evil railroad tycoon domain registrars took brambleberry.org away from us and gave it to some extremely mediocre fashion blogger in England? No, you say? You didn’t even know that Brambleberry was a thing back in 2011? You were not even born in 2011 (Jasso)? Well, look, we got it back!

So a while back I noticed that the mediocre fashion blog that had been using the domain stopped updating, and then the domain was parked at one of those terrible secret tip for loosing belly fat sites for a while and I figured it was only a matter of time until it switched hands again so I employed secret agents in the form of a public backorder to see about getting it back.

Brambleberry.org was originally registered by the Original Founders of Brambleberry Manor in the far off year of 2000 or maybe 2001. They sat on the domain for about ten years without doing anything with it and in 2010 or so we decided to start this blog. In its heyday it was a vibrant community full of rallying cries for and against duxploitaiton, entertaining and educational “Where’s Paladin” search and finds, party announcements, interviews, cocktail recipes, and even live chat with a resident feature!

The blog is arranged in a series of corners, such as Kitchen Corner for cooking and such, Kitty Korner for news about cats, and Adventure Corner where we can post about our various adventures. I’ve added a new “Alumni Corner” in the hopes that we can welcome Bramblebarrians past to join in the fun and keep in touch. Seeing as how Liv and I are moving out in a couple weeks I thought that would be a nice way to stay connected. Hopefully we can get some other past residents to join in too.

Let me know if you’d like me to set you up with a username so you can get started with your own posts. If you don’t want to play that’s fine too. Let’s just keep it free of complaints about dirty dishes.

Blake.
