Absolutely, we said, and set him up, including the plastic silverware (that's an oxymoron, isn't it).

Since that night, we have advertised at our Chicken dinner and last night's Beanhole dinner that we can do takeout as well as eat in. It is a popular option, and allows folks not to have to get kids cleaned up, or just be able to go home and sit down to watch the Red Sox or Pats, or whatever.

So, RLW, sorry you weren't able to take advantage of that last night. Ham was outstanding, beans were great (kidney and navy), cole slaw, cornbread, and ice cream for dessert (vanilla or Fudge Ripple), punch or lemonade, water or coffee. Served about 125 folks, with 25-30 takeouts. Maybe next time. See you at breakfast on Sunday.
Here is a picture of the beans coming out.

Thanks muchly for the input. I see Frank is still in the bean hole. You had a great turn out plus the carry outs. I had completely forgot about the take out which I could have done Saturday very easily.

I will be at the next breakfast which I believe is Sunday October the 20th, am I right?? I don't like missing that gathering and great food. I also get to see many friends that I only get the chance to see them is at the breakfast.
