YOU HAVE BEEN CORDIALLY INVITED...
Dec. 25th, 2012 02:53 amIf you just received this text from your contact inbox:
...then chances are you're in for a bit of a surprise.
Why Deck 004? Because it's one of the least occupied places with the least likely chances of being interrupted and whatnot.
BUT WHYFORE?
In commemoration to Someother-tember the 25th, Murphy's decided to do a little special thing for Sinterklaas. See, the poor guy hasn't had a decent Christmas in over a decade which, for a family man, is the worst thing ever. But the Tranquility folks are his family now, and he's actually kinda okay with that. :)
Murphy tends to overcompensate in the kitchen. He wants this to be awesome, and he wants you to feel awesome. Pretty much all of the food he's picked/collected himself, or what he's carted to the kitchen via veggie cart. Because he's just that diligent.
Sadly, there's not much in the ways of meaty foods (sorry Asato, but chicken is as easy to come by on the Tranquility as a decent spam recipe and you're not eating Jaye's), but there's plenty of other treats that he's gathered together into this meal-shaped incident, so you can expect:
→ REAL EGGNOG fffyeaaahhh
→ The Ponderton Irish Potato Soup
→ Sautéd Vegetables
→ FUCK YEAH it's bread so ready your bodies
→ Some shit with cranberries in them because that's festive right you know it is everybody loves cranberries
→ A small variety of instant noodley things holy shit
→ And of course, mashed poh-tay-toes (boil 'em mash 'em stick 'em in a stew)
(Also if anyone has any suggestions on foodstuffs to add, feel free to let me know and I can wave my magic handwavy wand.)
OKAY SO now that I've made myself phenomenally hungry, I leave you with this:
Yes and you're welcome.
Addendum: Oh yeah so IT'S A CHRISTMAS MIRACLE CHARLIE BROWN except not really, it's awful.
As mentioned on my plurk, feel free to just use this as a general handwavy thing for THEY HAD A FAMILY SINTERKLAAS DINNER and it was all gooey and heartfelt and they totally made sure the cats didn't keep jumping on the table because seriously that shit is annoying.
Have anything else to add, just comment or whatever. It's probably safe to assume that everyone gets drunk and acts like idiots and eventually ends with Murphy and Alex crying over some reason or the other, Iunno.
Syrup also suggested gift exchanges at the end, so gift exchanges there shall be.
Come to the Deck 004 Kitchens.
ASAP.

P.S. 5pm works, too.

DID YOU KNOW...?
The candy cane supposedly originated in 1670 when the choirmaster of Cologne Cathedral had candies made in the shape of a shepherd's crook. He distributed them to childred attending the church's creche scene to encourage them to silence.
Today more than 1.75 million candy canes are made each year for the Christmas season.
Yes and you're welcome.
