And what time should we all show up? Got a plan yet? Better yet, have you found a great conncection like you did in Chicago? Good luck to your Panthers!

The menu for Sunday is still a work in progress. I did find a good contact but he's not sending me food. Darn.
I have been emailing the food writer of the Seattle Weekly newspaper. His list included: wild salmon ...grilled or smoked (not lox), oysters (they are "gaga" over them, wild mushrooms...like chanterelle, Tillamook cheese(never heard of it),any dessert involving marionberries (don't know what they are either); Washington state apples; Washington wine (now that I do know about!) and a beer from a Seattle microbrewery.

We have some research to do. Any recipes are appreciated. We're having a LOT of fun...and you all are helping a bunch. Thanks again!

Well....it has taken me an entire day to get over the Panther's loss. They got hammered! Thank heavens for the wonderful food...at least the day wasn't a total loss. We had grilled salmon marinated in brown sugar, soy sauce & bourbon. Delicious! We added baked potatoes, sauteed spinach, salad and apple pie. We found a great Washington state wine but wished we'd bought more than 1 bottle. We needed it!

Thanks so much for all your input. It was so much fun!

Lyn, sorry about the loss. It was a nasty game,wasn't it? Glad you had some good food and decided on some NW foods. There is always next year!

Hope you recoup soon.
