hello!

[Jared Huber]

For those of you who are around, we would love to do one last get together before everybody goes their separate ways. We also have a time capsule to open. 

If you could respond to what if any time restraints you may have, but I think it would be great to get together for dinner sometime in the next three weeks.

[Saloni]

Hey guys,

Unfortunately I'll be in Malawi until April 17 but will likely be in Philly for graduation. Happy to Skype in though when yall open the time capsule haha. Crazy how our "cantwaitformds" group will be down to 5 in May!

Best,

Hao-Hua

Congrats you guys!  Any time in April works for me (2nd-4th week are a little bit better than the first week). I'm happy to cook something if we want to do potluck style!

[Kendra Moore]

I would love to get together!! I'll definitely be around the first two weeks in April. The next 3 weeks after that I'm out of town, and then, uhhh, it's basically graduation. I could also do it the week leading up to graduation if that's better for peeps. Can't wait to see you all!

Sounds like the 2nd weekend of April is so far conflict-free. 

Any preferences for Friday April 8 vs. Saturday April 9 vs. Sunday April 10th? 

[Kendra Moore]

Aw poop, I'm actually at a bachelorette party over that weekend. I should be back by dinner time on Sunday though!

Sunday April 10 works for us too! 

Just to sum up...Sunday April 10 around 5 ok?

[Kendra Moore]

It's on my calendar! I will get there as close to 5 as I can, pending traffic.

Yayyyyyy!

[Christina Wright]

Works for me! Can't wait!

[Saloni]

Yes works for me too!! My address is 443 S 48th St. 

Also since multiple ppl are coming from something else, I'm down w making this a pizza/salad & lemonade/beer kind of situation so it's cheap and easy for everyone. Would you guys be cool w that? 

Sent from my iPhone

[Jared Huber]

Works great! Nancy and I can bring a salad/side.

[Saloni Malik]

Ok everyone! Just to confirm:

Dinner at my house, this Sunday April 10th. Could we say 6 instead of 5? If not 5 is ok too. 

Coming: Jared, Kendra, Christina, Zach, Saloni, OMAR?!?!?!, no HH :( 

Omar confirm that you're coming please :)

YAY can't wait to catch up, open the time capsule, etc :)

[Omar Khan]

Hey guys,

I actually won't be able to make it on Sunday :(. I'll be attending a wake for Brian's mother, who just passed away this last week. 

I really hope to see everyone before 9B disbands!

Cheers,

Oh no, sorry to hear it :( we'll catch you another time of course 

Sent from my iPhone

[Zachary Hostetler]

Hey all,

I will also be attending the services for Brian's mom on Sunday and Monday. Really hoping we can find another time to get together!

Zach

[Kendra Moore]

I'm so sad to hear about Brian's mom. 

Shall we reschedule? It would be great to all be able to hang out. 

Sent from my iPhone

[Jared Huber]

Agreed. Let's postpone. So sorry for Brian and his family. Send them our best.

[Saloni]

Yes I think that would be best too - how abt next weekend, or even midweek? I can do this upcoming Wed night (on the later side), Thursday evening, or Fri/Sat/Sun. Do any of  those work for people?

Sent from my iPhone

[Jared Huber]

Midweek is better for me, but Friday woukd be the best weekend day.

[Saloni Malik]

Anyone else? 

Wed/Thurs/Friday preferences?

[Christina Wright]

Any of these are fine with me!

[Zachary Hostetler]

Agh sorry guys, I have all these life events going on (another wedding this weekend, this time in NC). Going to be too busy to do anything until after this weekend! Feel free to potluck without me though, if everyone else is able to make it.

[Kendra Moore]

Sorry for the delay in responding! I can't do Wednesday or Thursday. Could potentially do Friday if that works for most people. 

[Omar Khan]

Gonna make things more complicated! I can only do late Thursday night this weeks since I’m away backpacking from Fri-Sun.

Sorry!

O

[Saloni Malik]

Ok then - executive decision: Let's do Friday - sorry Omar! Kendra's moving to SF and you're not (yet). That is, if Friday still works for you, Jared. I figure if Jared & Kendra can make it, then at least Christina and I can hang w/ them! And maaaybe we could do on the early side on Friday and you could delay your trip until evening?!? 

[Omar Khan]

Sorry guys! Have a great time.

[Jared Huber]

Friday should work ok. Thanks Saloni!

[Saloni]

Ok great! Let's say Friday at 7 at my house! I'll make Indian food. Christina no dairy I remember, any other dietary restrictions? Spice tolerance?

Sent from my iPhone

[Christina Wright]

Friday is fine with me! Yup, no dairy. Spice is fine! 

[Saloni Malik]

I won't make anything crazy spicy regardless, just seeing if anyone would be interested in a few legit zero spice dishes (which is no problem for me to make). 

Saloni

[Jared Huber]

No peanuts please! And moderately spicy should be OK. :)

[Saloni Malik]

Ok great!

[Kendra Moore]

Cool I'm glad at least some of us can get together! I'm gluten free these days (it's terrible), but that's not usually an issue w Indian food. And I love spicy. What can we bring, Saloni?

Sent from my iPhone

[Saloni]

Gluten free - 1) my condolences 😥 and 2) no problem at all w indian food 

If you guys wouldn't mind chipping in like $5 for groceries then I think just bring yourselves! I've got the rest covered!

PS do bring your Claritin if you have dog allergies ... Rollo sheds like crazy :) 

Sent from my iPhone

[Jared Huber]

So to sum up, no gluten, dairy, peanuts, or booze (for some of us). It's a good thing we don't have any other restrictions because our collective food pyramid is more of a food toothpick. :)

Nancy and I are happy to bring dessert.

Excited to see you.

J

[Saloni]

Haha that sounds great! The funny thing is I've actually had to make 0 recipe adjustments based on these restrictions - indian food is so special-diet friendly! and in case anyone cares the stuff I make is also really healthy and fresh, not the greasy stuff! If anyone was vegan that also would have been easy!! (But I am making some meat bc yummmm meat!).

Sent from my iPhone

[Christina Wright]

I'm happy to chip in however much you need, Saloni, and super excited for our meal!

[Kendra Moore]

Can't wait!

[Christina Wright]

What time are we gathering? I may have missed this from a previous email...

[Jared Huber]

7 I think

[Saloni]

Yep 7! 443 S 48th St!

Sent from my iPhone

[Christina Wright]

Ugh I'm running late because science.  I'll probably be there at 7:30 instead of 7 :-(

[Saloni]

No worries! FYI the penn bus west runs right in front of my house if you're coming from campus :)

Sent from my iPhone

[Christina Wright]

Guys I am so, so sorry. Something major came up and I am not going to make it this evening :( :( :(  Kendra and Jared, when do you guys leave? I still really want to see you before you move away! 

[Saloni]

Awww no worries Christina, so sorry we missed you!! Hope things in lab are going ok!
