So dinner questions to be answered:
1) You coming?
[Kitten Basket] Oh yes.
1a) If yes, banquet menu ok?
[Kitten Basket] Yes
1a1) If yes, which banquet items appeal?
[Kitten Basket] Supremo or Glorioso (preferably Supremo?)
1a2) If no, what do you propose we do instead?
1b) If no, are you weenie-ing out because you THINK you can't afford it?
1b1) Does the wording of my question above change your answer?
1d) If no, what the heck is wrong with you?
[Kitten Basket] I'm not answering these questions because I'm going.

2) Anything we MUST have (even if not on the banquet menu)?
(I figure we might have some leeway in this regard as omissions cost the same as some included items.)
[Kitten Basket] Tiramisu. And I have an unsatisfied dessert war with Dark_Respite to be addressed.
3) Preferred dining date/time? My planned default is Friday Oct 23, 5:30pm which will hopefully allow us to dine without rushing to get to whatever Niv might be putting together on Friday
[Kitten Basket] Works for me.
