We are doing a standing rib roast, crossed swords style...two full sides...having 24 people...butternut squash casarole, mashed pots, steamed greenbeans with almonds, and a huge salad...for appetizers...doing 4 lbs of jumbo cold boiled shrimp and some great crab dip...

The opening appetizers join some Tommasi Pino Grigo, and the mail course features some great Merlot and Shriz from Little Penguin (Australia)...

Desert is bannas foster with Champagne...

No telling what the others will bring...should be fun...
