Coffee/Tea at Christmas Party?

[Ann]

Does anyone remember if we usually have coffee and tea at the Christmas party? And if so, where do we get it from? I have cups and stir sticks left over from last year.

I have coffee and tea from the kit try-on. The coffee has been sealed in my freezer since the try-on. Unless anyone objects to us using that, I'll bring it on Sat.

Sounds good to me! I'll add "Cream and sugar for tea/coffee" to the potluck sign up. Thanks, Martin!

Apologies for my cluelessness but I can't find the sign up for the pot luck the couple of times I've tried quickly to look for it. Would someone mind reposting in a really obvious place?

Cheers!

Here you go, Louise:

There are tabs at the bottom of the spreadsheet. The second one is the pot luck sign up.

Thanks Ann. The tab explains it. I was looking for a whole separate spread sheet!

I've asked for - and received - donated urns of coffee from Starbucks at a couple of previous TS parties. They are usually quite willing. I think last year (or maybe the one before), I got just two of the cardboard "travellers" and that was sufficient. I don't have the time this year - it should probably be done today - but if anyone else wants to take a crack at it, just pop into your local Sbux and ask. The worst thing that could happen is they say no. And there's probably a >50% chance they'll say yes.

As a not-inconsequential side-effect, no one will be subject to Martin's wretched freezer coffee (shudder). Here's some coffee-storage geekery courtesy of everyone's go-to for cultural intelligence, HuffPost.

There WILL be coffee and tea at the party, provided by the centre, and included in our rental fee.

I'll bring the freezer coffee anyway...just for Claire.
