<p>So far 2 different toasters have overdone it a little bit on the toast 
I’ll try one more…
Lets keep this thread going so none of use feels like a thread killer!</p>
<p>PS-- forgot to mention-- so glad you made your train, veryhappy. What’s NY without someone running frenetically to to catch the train??</p>
<p>I do it Monday through Friday, so it’s kinda in my blood. And I had checked beforehand to see which track the train was leaving from, so all I had to do was get there and hop on. For an old New Yorker like me, it was just like breathing!</p>
<p>The rest of the day was a blur – got to the grocery by 3:30, home by 4:30, cooked up a storm for my dinner guests, finished cooking by 6:00, cleaned up the kitchen, finished cleaning what my DH siad he would clean but didn’t, freshened up, and guests arrived by 6:45. Phew!</p>
<p>All-in-all, a perfect day!!</p>
<p>So – shall we do this once a quarter??</p>
<p>^^^ Wow!! Glad all went well. Sounds like you pulled it off without a hitch! AS for a reunion, I’ll let everyone know when I’ll be back up North, but you don’t have to wait for me to get together.</p>
<p>jym - But you and momof3sons did such a great job organizing the whole thing! We need you both!</p>
<p>Also, I’m sorry your toasters are overdoing the bread - I just set mine on the lowest setting, and it turned out right. Maybe, just stick it in the oven for a minute while you’re cooking dinner?</p>
<p>It sounds like a great time was had by all - I’m sorry I missed it! I’ll look forward to the next one.</p>
<p>^^^ Your ears musta been burning, NYmomof2-- we talked about you! ;)</p>
<p>^^^ and here I thought you were having an interesting conversation!</p>
<p>^^^ NYmomof2,
Oh, but we <em>were</em> having an interesting conversation!! :D</p>
