Jaynie, we all pitched in and brought a different type of food. Some dessert, some salad, sandwich fixins, drinks, etc. We never want to have to spend time fixing food when we could be quilting :) We didn't expect our hostess to provide anything. She was already doing all the driving as she's the only one with a 4-wheel drive to get us down there! I just bet you're going to have sooooo much fun when you finally get to have your friends over for a girls' night out. We've had several at different houses and we always mangage to have fun. We even stay out of trouble for the most part. :lol:
