I can't believe summer is already gone. When and how did that happen? These past few months have been all a blur to me. I guess too many things happened this summer and I just as soon would like to forget about them. I can't wait for the the cool breeze (I think they said this was the hottest summer on record. Global warming, anyone?), fallen leaves, pumpkin pies, and hot apple cider.
So, I went window shopping for some cool green stuff from Etsy in anticipation. (With my son in college, I can ONLY window shop. Sheeeesh….)
Look at these fabulous things I found on Etsy…to reflect these past months and to say "Hellooooo Fall!"
*You can click the pictures to see what other awesome items these sellers have in their shops.
U.S. Open is on and I couldn't help to notice these wallets that are made from old tennis racket covers. Ingenious!
Jean left me this working vintage rotary phone and Emily still plays with it. She's NEVER seen one!! Sounds like a cliche but oh so true. Will live by this….from now on….promise. Nothing compares to the smell of pumpkin pie but couldn't resist having a perpetual pumpkin like this in the house.
I hope you had a great summer.
What are you looking to buy to celebrate Fall?

To do the cool things, you have to be logged in first.
if you'd have told me that memphis and houston would have 7-game winning streaks, i would have called you nuts! so be it; just means it's time for us to put an end to memphis' run.i had been a little worried that we might rely on the home-court advantage too much last night. maybe in the first quarter, we did. the important thing was that we came back and took control of the game. yes, control. we never truly let the kings back into it.i've been excited about Craig Smith since hearing his media day interview (if not mistaken, the same day he was signed). he had a look of joyful determination in his eyes as he answered questions. i couldn't wait to see him on the floor. now, i can't wait to see more of him in action. the guy is a monster (well okay, maybe a Rhino).i hope Jamal's new perspective in his role leads to consistency. he doesn't have to go for 26 every night, but we need him to contribute. it also says a lot about LaMarcus' growth as a leader to have that conversation with him on the plane ride home.let's hope the win over sacramento is the start of an uprise. we're all ready for that.~ KMM

2) dirt + rain = mud and is only fun for so long
3) i was 1 of a million girls trying to take artsy "look at me wearing my Hunter boots in the mud" photos
4) silent discos are just as awkward and fun as i expected they would be
5) walking through a field of mud is the best leg and butt workout you can get. ever.
6) upper east side looks pretty sweet from Randall's Island

Agreement includes payment by church, vacation by lodge
Evergreen Union Church will have the rights to 1.2 acres of property after a heated court case was settled in Honorable Judge Ford Stinston's courtroom Thursday.
A judgment was issued in favor of the church after they proposed a settlement to the Dorcheat Masonic Lodge, in which both parties agreed to the terms.
Stinson said he was at a loss for words on how to describe the case.
"I appreciate both sides of the counsels," he said. "It has been a hard and interesting case, but I am impressed with the resolution presented today."
In a statement given by church attorney William Leadbetter, Evergreen Union Church and Sunday School, Inc. has been recognized as the owner of the tract of land that was involved in the litigation. Dorcheat Masonic Lodge has been given until March 1 to vacate the premises.
According to court records, the settlement agreed to by both parties called for a $60,000 payment from the church to the lodge.
Both parties filed suits in an effort to claim ownership of parts of the property where the church is located. The second floor room of the sanctuary, which was used by the lodge for meetings, and Givens Hall, which was largely constructed with the Lodge's contributions, were the parts of the property in question, according to testimony during the trial.
Until the first of March, the two entities have agreed to share access of Givens Hall and the meeting room in the sanctuary, which were the areas of the property in question in the lawsuit.
A judgment of dismissal will recognize the transfer of any property rights by the lodge to the church.
According to the settlement, the lodge delivered any and all rights of the property to the church.
According to a prepared statement to the press, "The controversy between ... has been resolved on terms that are agreeable to both parties."
Representing the lodge, William G. Frazier testified that after a lodge meeting, the members accepted the payment for any rights they may have to the property given to Evergreen Church.
R.O. Machen, represented the Evergreen Church under oath and testified that the agreement was supported by its members.

Waking Up to the Best of Alarm Clocks and Alarm Apps
No longer is the question, "how many people out there use their cell as an alarm clock?" The question now is how many still use an old fashioned alarm clock? But whether you want a physical stand-alone alarm clock or prefer to rely upon your phone and an alarm app, there are several well-designed options out there...
iPhone Alarm Dock: The iPhone Alarm Dock lets you have the best of both worlds. You can continue using your phone as an alarm, but you have a pretty wooden case to mount it on that also comes with to thread your USB charging cable through.
Bird Alarm Clock: We have a thing for birds and it's not just because we love Twitter. The Bird Alarm tweets sweetly to wake you up in the morning - and it's a bilingual specimen. You can set it to wake you up in English or Japanese.
Alarm Clock Wood Cube Dark: There's a handsome simplicity about this wood cube clock. We like the contrast between natural dark wood and red LED digital time. The wood cube looks just like a pretty wood cube normally. Clap your hands if you want to see the time.
Uniqlo Wake Up App: Along with being one of our favorite retail stores, Uniqlo is always dreaming up great digital gems like screensavers and Twitter lines leading up to the opening of new stores. The Wake Up app is another awesome invention of theirs. The alarm plays a custom song to wake you up based on the weather, hour and day of the week. You can also hear the temperature, conditions and time if you want. The app was made in collaboration with artists Cornelius/Keigo Oyamada and Yoko Kanno.
Anywake App: Anywake turns waking up into a game. Anywake is an alarm app that wakes you up to the sounds of a random city. If you guys which one it is, you're rewarded with discounted tickets to that destination. It's only available in Sweden currently, but it's such a cool idea.

May we feel the Android love for an alarm clock app, please?
Is there an alarm app (Apple or Android) that can have an alarm based on solar time - ie, 20 minutes before sunrise, or 40 minutes before sunset? I like to watch sunrise, but setting the alarm to a different minute each day is tedious!

The first impression made by the new interior is by its design. Like other vehicles in the Subaru lineup, the Impreza interior now has sweeping twin cockpits up front, emphasized by insets that look like brushed aluminum, sculpted door panels, and a lot of extra head room – especially in the 5-door. The new interior design highlights the available seven-inch navigation screen and information display in the center of the dash.
The center console also has an available auxiliary audio jack and RCA jacks for portable media players. Models with 6-disc CD audio systems will feature SRS Circle Surround® sound, which provides cinema sound quality for every seat in the vehicle.
The second impression is made by the interior's size. It's larger in every dimension, and that's apparent when sliding into any of the seating positions.
The WRX retains the Subaru Symmetrical AWD System – part of Subaru core technology. Elements include the Subaru Boxer engine and AWD drivetrain. The new Impreza body/chassis design allows the Subaru Boxer engine to be located lower to the ground, making the vehicle's center of gravity even lower. That contributes significantly to improved handling.
A chassis feature that impacts interior room is the new double-wishbone rear suspension system. It takes up less space than the previous strut-type design, freeing cabin space. In conjunction with the more rigid body, the double-wishbone suspension contributes to a quieter ride.
The 2.5-liter, 4-cylinder Boxer engine was modified for 2008 with a new intake manifold, intercooler, and turbocharger. The engine delivers both peak horsepower and peak torque at lower engine speeds, improving low-end torque as well as fuel efficiency. (See Engine Comparison chart.)

ALTUS, Okla_A horrific
ending to a police pursuit in Altus
Sunday night, sent one man to the hospital and another to the Jackson County Jail.
The chase ended
in a two-car crash when the driver leading the chase ran a stop sign at Commerce
and Navajoe and hit another car on the driver's side. It started just six
blocks away, when police tried to pull the driver over for a broken tail light.
Police say the driver, identified as Chad Dickerson, took off and ultimately
slammed into an innocent bystander.
Altus Police Chief
Tim Murphy said Chad Dickerson has outstanding warrants out of Tillman County. He said that and the alcohol
officers smelled on his breath might be the reason he panicked and took off.
Blaike Goss said
she was at home with her family last night when she heard a loud boom from the
"I really
didn't know what to think our first response was to come out and help so we
came out and got the door off the man as fast as we could and waited for other
people to show up."
Authorities say
even after the collision, Dickerson was able to jump out of his pickup and run
away. Goss said a policeman was not far behind.
"We saw
him take off after the guy that hit the car, because he got out and ran down
the street down Broadway."
Chief Murphy
said police found Dickerson hiding out in a backyard.
"It's unfortunate that anybody was hurt
to begin with. But it's unfortunate that the driver that the other vehicle was
hurt, I pray that he recovers real quick."
Altus police say
they are unclear as to the condition of the man flown to Oklahoma City.
As for Dickerson,
he is currently in the Jackson County Jail. He is facing several charges,
including failing to stop after an accident and driving while under the
influence of drugs or alcohol.
His initial
appearance is Thursday in the Jackson County Courthouse.

When Staples announced this past fall that is would be selling a home automation system, called Staples Connect, at its stores and online nationwide, it was a sign that maybe, just maybe, home automation was going to hit the mainstream and hit it hard. Based on the recent announcement by Staples and platform developer Zonoff at the Consumer Electronics Show, the launch of its Connect home automation platform must be going well, as a host of new device partners have joined the ecosystem that enables consumers to piece together their own home automation system. Some of the newest companies to announce their support of the Connect system include Kwikset, Netgear, Radio Thermostat, Centralite, Withings, Waxman, Goji, Koubachi and Rachio. Products from these companies will be sold at Staples stores and at Staples.com, along with products from existing partners including Lutron, Philips, Linksys, Honeywell, First Alert, Yale, GE, D-Link, Cooper, Leviton, Schlage, and more.
Another move that strengthens Staples' presence in the home automation marketplace, is its plan to support wireless communications technologies like ZigBee, Bluetooth and Insteon. The Connect platform already supports Z-Wave, Clear Connect and Wi-Fi-based products.
"We envision a home in which open standards like Wi-Fi, Z-Wave, ZigBee, Bluetooth and others work seamlessly alongside traditionally proprietary standards like Lutron's Clear Connect," says Zonoff CEO Mike Harris.

If Marc Bulger leaves Baltimore as a free agent this offseason to become a starter elsewhere, the Ravens will likely be in the market for another able veteran to back up fourth-year quarterback Joe Flacco. Might that veteran signal-caller be Donovan McNabb, who is on the outs in Washington?
Sure, it would take a few things to fall into place around the NFL -- and then Flacco and McNabb checking their egos at the locker room door -- but the possibility shouldnt be ruled out.
The market for McNabb is reportedly drying up. The Titans and the Vikings, two teams who were desperate for quarterback help, selected Jake Locker and Christian Ponder, respectively, in the first round of last months NFL draft. The Bengals took Andy Dalton in the second round, and the 49ers say they are comfortable with Alex Smith keeping the huddle warm for Colin Kaepernick.

Not everyone's going after the old tier sets. I don't like the looks of the warrior tiers -- so I'm farming the Hyperion and Imbued Plate greens from MC/BWL. SEXY brilliant red/orange or deep red/purple Gnome Chick Warrior!
Combined with the Spellfire Longsword from Mennu in Slave Pens and a techy glowy shield, "awesome" is a distinct understatement.
Ditto for the Warlock tier gear. I guess for guys, it's okay, but I'm tired of my 'lock looking like she's wearing a carpet bag covered in skulls and fire and horns. BLEH. What's the point of being a Megalomaniacal Evil Warlock Babe if you can't dress fashionably sexy?

Even more scenes were filmed and added in 1971 (hence our dates listed after the movie title) and the title was once again changed to Blood of Ghastly Horror.

It's been a while… sorry about that. Moved house. Anyway, I'm cheating with this one a little, as they're no longer outsiders. But this EP's too good not to share.
ShiSho was formed nine years ago by Ohio sisters Vivian and Midge Ramone. They were seven and three years old at the time. They helped to define the "youngwave" movement of quirky child musicians with songs like 'Christmas Time In Paris France', 'Punk Rawk Boy', a cover of my favourite New Order track, 'True Faith', that semi-reverse engineers it to sound like a Joy Division demo (these are all on Rainbow Jumpin' Demo, so if that doesn't make sense, listen and understand) and the SubGenius favourite 'America Will Punch You'.
Undoubtedly, when they started, they were outsiders. Three year olds are not generally musically trained, and are certainly unconcerned with following traditional musical forms. Of course, time has ravaged them, and now, nine years later, they have released a far more polished debut EP, at the ripe old ages of sixteen and twel… oh for goodness sake. I'm twenty-six and can barely play the kazoo. Vivian and Midge on the other hand, with a combined age only two years older than I, have put together a release that can genuinely be compared to the likes of They Might Be Giants. How annoying.
Not that annoying though, because it's my own fault I can't play anything, and The Sisters EP is brilliant. The development of their performance and the higher fidelity of their recording hasn't affected how fun this punk-folk duo are to listen to. Opener 'It's Coming To Get You (The Evil Clown Song)' manages to capture both the fun that some might associate with clowns through performance and the utter terror others might through lyrics. 'Ohio Man' meanwhile is a scathing attack on the foibles of their neighbours, whether they're attacking laundromats or shooting robots.
No, this isn't a sensible EP. Nor is this a sensible band. Even at their most satirical, as in last year's single 'My Dear Republicans (The Fiscal Cliff Song)', they can still chuck in a reference to Darth Vader. But a) they're kids - they're meant to be silly, and b) when it sounds this fun, who cares? Name your price over on Bandcamp, or go see them live for hard copy. Now, I won't be posting about ShiSho again. They're bound to break the mainstream soon enough, and besides, they know too much…
ShiSho's offical websiteFacebook
I've got another update pretty much in the can, so hold tight…

Making an Adirondack Pack Basket
Wednesday Oct 2, 2013 -- 7PM
He uses a technique of harvesting Black Ash and then pounding the logs with a special hammer to extract one layer of wood at a time. It is a method that is apparently hundreds of years old and may have actually been originated by and passed down by Indians from this region. It is unique and his pack baskets are very rare and considered artistic as well as useful. He is one of less than 20 people in the east that still actually hand make pack baskets, and from the sounds of it, he is the a rare one who employs this method of obtaining the raw wood that comprises the basket itself…quite an interesting fellow, still a true woodsman.
co-sponsored with the Charlton Historical Society
April 2012 Show
We had a show Wednesday evening April 4, 2012 - open to the public - sponsored by the Charlton Historical Society. Show at 7:00 pm. $5 contribution at the door. Refreshments.
Dan Berggren - award-winning musician and educator grew up on the land farmed by his mother's family for generations and has worked in the woods with forest ranger and survey crews. Hearing stories and songs from local friends and neighbors, Dan has developed a style that captures the spirit of the Adirondack mountains.

Today, I'm leaving Santa Barbara
Probably for forever. I don't see myself ever living here again. Sure, I'll come back and visit, come to the All-Gaucho Reunion and sorority alumnae weekends, but that's just not the same as living in this kooky little beachside party town. I've spent four years in Santa Barbara, one of them in the dorms and the other three in Isla Vista. I've lived in two crappy apartments and two beautiful ones. I've had six different sets of roommates (if you count the dorms) and most of them have been batshit crazy (but lovable). In my four years here I have grown in ways I never could have imagined on that grey day in April 2007, when at age 17, I decided that this was where I'd be going to college. I have become part of an incredible Jewish community that it breaks my heart to have to leave. I have helped found a chapter of my sorority, studied abroad, been an intern, met probably over 1000 people. I have developed friendships with my professors, written hundreds of pages of creative writing and almost as much criticism, learned how to make an omelet, hated my roommates, loved my roommates, drank more than is healthy, eaten a few too many late-night Freebirds nachos, and made some of the best friends I will ever, ever have.
Goodbye, Isla Vista, UCSB, Santa Barbara. I will miss you like hell, probably more than I really know. <3 Gaucho for life.

What are the arguments for and against philosophy in high school?
Philosophy is seen as a dead science. However, how can we ignore the prevalence of philosophy in history. Whether it be the philosophy of science, language, or history, there has always been philosophical inquiry except near the middle of the twentieth century.
Should philosophy be taught at the high school level? Should there be a mandatory or elective class for philosophy? What are the merits of philosophy in High School? What are the draw back of teaching philosophy in high school?

Sep 9 2012: I'm thinking that Henry is wondering if there is any utility or pragmatic application of philosophy. This appears especially germaine these days in light of discussions about the value of a college education (ie, traditional four year, humanities/ liberal arts education without any direct job skills attached). And even in the so-called "core curriculum" that are expected of all graduates from four year institutions. Those need to be paid for and do add on to the overall tuitions. One could ask if there is any intrinsic value to those courses when they may not be directly applicable to one's ultimate career interests (I think they are valuable, by the way, but I can see the other side of the argument).

Family Vaca
We rented this home August 2013. Lobster season had just begun. We had one toddler and a puppy along with 7 adults. We were perfectly comfortable. The bedrooms were comfy. Three are incredibly large, one is smaller with the bathroom in the hall. One bedroom has outdoor access. The kitchen has everything you'll need. The living room is small but right off the water and there was never an issue about space. There is an alarm on the door so if your small child opens it, you'll know immediately. Good safety feature for people with little ones. We turned it off when we were all together and our son was well supervised. The deck is great, very peaceful. Goes way out into the water and feels private. We took the kayaks out and had a great time looking in at the other homes along the water. Really a great place. We'd definitely rent there again.
Wonderful Vacation home!!
We had a wonderful time at Vista Linda. The house and grounds were perfect! Exactly what we were looking for in a vacation rental! We did a couple touristy things while we were there - visited the Turtle Hospital, The new Aquarium, and a day trip to Key West - but most of our time was spent snorkeling out by the dock, lounging in the pool and spa, and kayaking over to the nearby islands. Our favorite place to eat was the Sunset Grille (we went twice)! I have recommended this house to all of my friends and family. I really appreciate the time and effort y'all put into making sure we had a great vacation! Thank you for the amazing memories!
Superb place in the Keys.
The condo was exactly as described and very well stocked with bedding, towels and kitchen utensils. The view was to die for and we witnessed some very impressive lightening displays. We used the dock as we hired a boat for a few days and fished there in the evenings. There are some good restaurants close to the condo although we were very disappointed with the quality of food at the Island Fish Market. For most of our stay we had the pool to ourselves which was lovely. The grounds are teaming with wildlife and there are some lovely green iguanas in residence. This is a fantastic property and in an excellent location for visiting Key West. I highly recommend Janet's delightful condo to anyone and Janet herself could not have been more helpful.

BUFFALO – The train has all but fallen off the tracks.
The league's worst penalty killing unit has become entirely unglued, yielding another three goals to the Sabres in a 5-4 loss at First Niagara Center on Friday night. For the 10th time in 31 games the Leafs allowed two or more powerplay goals, an incredibly alarming trend for a team huddled in the midst of the playoff heap.
Optimism grew with the unit in November (82%), but has veered completely off track in December. The ailing penalty kill has allowed 11 goals in six games this month for a paltry efficiency of 58%. For comparison's sake, the top-ranked kill in New Jersey has allowed eight powerplay goals all season. What was once a disturbing secret in the closet of a strong start is now costing the Leafs critical points in the standings, three losses in the last four games to be precise; two powerplay goals from the Devils on December 6 bit back in a 3-2 overtime loss, four powerplay goals on December 9 by the Capitals determined a 4-2 loss and on Friday, three for the Sabres capped a critical interdivision loss (the two teams are tied with 35 points).
"If you get a big kill, you gain momentum and that's what we needed to do," James Reimer said, casting personal blame for the Sabres third powerplay goal, a point shot from Andrej Sekera that snuck under his right arm. "Our penalty kill; I don't know how many goals we've let in the last couple games, but it hasn't been good enough.
"We didn't get the job done on the penalty kill and I take responsibility for my part in that. Obviously your goalie has to be your best penalty killer; I don't think I made enough saves.
"At the end of the day our PK has to be better and it starts with me."
They have worked on fixing it, quite a bit actually in the last couple weeks. Practice has concluded each day with plenty of work alongside assistant coach Greg Cronin, none of which seems to have eradicated the host of mistakes made this month. Drew Stafford for example, was able to sneak into the slot untouched for the Sabres first powerplay goal. A few minutes later with the Leafs short two men, all three defenders (Dion Phaneuf, Carl Gunnarsson and Tim Connolly) rushed to Stafford with the puck on the right half-wall, leaving Tyler Ennis wide-open cross-ice for another marker.
Ron Wilson has been rightfully irked with the number of penalties his team has taken of late (26 times shorthanded in December), particularly when already killing a penalty. Of note on Friday was Phillipe Dupuis's ill-timed hi-sticking whistle, which put the Leafs down five-on-three with the score tied at two in the second period. Ennis scored (as detailed above) to put the Sabres ahead, ultimately for good.
"Well yeah it did," Wilson said, when asked if the penalty broke his team's proverbial back. "We didn't do a very good job positionally on the five-on-three, but again we've taken far too many penalties in the last two or three weeks, penalty-killers taking penalties. It doesn't really give your team a chance at that point."
Another red flag waving statistic: the Leafs have yielded six five-on-three goals, worst in the NHL.
Personnel has changed (Phil Kessel even got in on the act on Friday), attention has been paid, but at the end of the day the Leafs are not getting the job done, allowing a league-worst 33 powerplay goals to date. Playoffs will be a long shot with such ineffectiveness.
"When you get a penalty you've got to kill it," Tim Connolly said. "One mistake and it's in the back of your net; seems to be happening quite a bit to us.
"It's something we're just going to have work on. We're going to have to continue to work, day-in and day-out, keep grinding it out, get it back on the right track here."
Five Points
1. What started the avalanche of penalties and powerplay goals in the second period was an ill-timed trip south by Jake Gardiner. The 21-year-old circled back with the puck behind his own goal before being stripped by Zack Kassian, who promptly fed Thomas Vanek for the Sabres second goal. "It was simple," Wilson said. "Our D started heading backward with the puck instead of advancing it. I thought we were controlling and dictating the pace of the play [when a] couple of the defencemen decided to hang onto pucks and try to slow the game down. I don't know why, but it blew up in our face." The Leafs ultimately want their defence moving pucks north into the hands of the forwards as quickly as possible.
2. Phaneuf's five-minute boarding penalty in the second earned him a game misconduct. "I didn't mean to board him," Phaneuf said of Kassian. "I went in to finish my check and the puck got caught along the boards, but like I said, I didn't mean to board him."
"I'm sure they've already reviewed it," Wilson said of the NHL, "and they'll make a decision whatever that happens to be. Dion was just finishing his check and the guy turned his back to him."
3. Nikolai Kulemin mercifully snapped a 23-game goalless drought – the longest of his career – with his third goal of the year, a penalty shot that beat Ryan Miller. "It's long time without goals," Kulemin said. "I just want to score so bad and I just try too hard maybe some games."
4. Connolly was greeted with a stream of boos in his return to Buffalo. Sabres head coach Lindy Ruff reflected on the apparent frustration with injuries that seemed to define Connolly's eight-year career in Buffalo. "I think you guys [in Toronto] got frustrated earlier in the year, from what I recall, when he was hurt," Ruff said before the game. "I think you know what you get when Tim's healthy. He's a tremendous playmaker; he can make the players [around him] better. We've known that from day one and he's proving that [in Toronto]."
Connolly played in 162 of 164 games in his first two seasons with the Sabres before missing 190 over the following six seasons with an assortment of injuries.
Added long-time teammate and current Sabre Paul Gaustad, "I try to stay away from the newspapers and TV, but his injuries were tough; that happens in athletics and sometimes when it rains it pours when it happens with that stuff."
5. Joffrey Lupul – who scored his 14th of the year in defeat – offered some interesting thoughts on the perception of a budding rivalry between the Leafs and Sabres. "Well the rivalry will pick up when our team starts winning some games and making the playoffs," Lupul said on Friday morning. "They've had a pretty good last couple years here and we haven't been in the playoffs. With the two cities being pretty close together it makes for a pretty obvious rivalry, but again we've got to start winning some games, especially in this building and the rivalry should pick up each time."

How Much Food Should I Make for a Wedding Reception for 200 People?
Good Questions
Sent by Lynnae
Editor: These posts might help you with your menu planning:
Readers, what advice do you have for planning enough food for this wedding?
Next question?
(Image: Faith Durand)
16 Comments
I have no idea, but if I were at your wedding, I would probably have both a piece of chicken and a helping of pulled pork. So maybe plan for a single piece of chicken per person? Sure, some people might not eat it, but then someone who doesn't eat pork might eat two pieces, or someone might want seconds of both!
(I'm assuming here that this is buffet style.)
I would plan for at least a piece of chicken per person. And about half a pound of meat per person. So I would go with 100lbs of pork and at least 200 pieces of chicken. If it's buffet style then I would be worried about people wanting seconds or taking more than what you'd like them to. If it's plated then you can control what people get.
As a retired carerer, I can tell you food quanitiy varies greatly with each group. Some families are hearty meat eaters and others eat like birds. Know your guests and their eating habbits. The same applies to beverages. Some groups/families are big coffee drinkers, others perfer tea or just water.
This estimate seems on the low end to me...like mandoos02, I would plan on 1/2 pound of meat and 1 piece of chicken per person. Some people will take less, but unless there are literally no men invited to this event, some people will take significantly more than that. :) I would also use small plates for people to serve themselves so that you make sure everyone does get some food the first time around, and then people can go back for leftovers if there is enough.
I also agree with mandoos02's comment. If I eat chicken at home, my husband and I usually each 2 pieces each. I learned from my eclectic dessert table that people will definitely want to try one of everything, for a variety of reasons including not being sure what they will like, wanting to taste everything offered, or just being starved because the eating schedule gets thrown off due to unforeseen circumstances.
This may not exactly be relevant, but I just wanted to mention that it might be a good idea to focus on smaller pieces of chicken (thighs and drumsticks) and have more of them, rather than having equal numbers of all the chicken parts. I was recently at a (large) family event where fried chicken was catered, and they ran out of dark meat and were left with full trays of breasts that no one wanted. I know some people prefer white meat, but unless you're working with very small chickens I think the breasts are just too big for easy eating in this type of situation.
Here I have to disagree. 1/2 pound of pulled pork per person is a lot! Especially with all those sides. I usually go with 4 oz protein pp. Plus with the chicken? That should be plenty.
50 lbs pork x 16 + 800 oz, Divided by 200 equals 4 oz pp.
You should be ok with those numbers you came up with.
I agree that 1/4 lb pork per person is enough.
Here is a great reference for whenever you are cooking for a large group. The site looks old-school, but it has a TON of great information: http://www.ellenskitchen.com/index.html
Why not just roast a whole pig? We fed about 150 people at my wedding with one pig.
As a retired caterer I would suggest you use small serving spoons for the sides and put the sides at the beginning of the serving line and the meat at the end. That way people will fill their plates with sides and have only a small amount of room on that small plate for the meat (which will be the most expensive part of the buffet.)
The general rule is one pound of food per person. That being said, I find that people tend to eat more of the meats than the sides, so I'd lean towards 3/4 of a pound of meat and 1/4 pound sides per person if budget allows.
I've had large parties where I prepared pulled pork, BBQ chicken and ribs with tons of sides. At the first party, so many people only ate half of their PP sandwich. For subsequent events, I used smaller rolls so there would be less waste.
We will be roasting a pig for our wedding for sure.
Please, please allow for a minimum of 1 piece of chicken per person, and 1/4-1/2 lb of pork. I second the use of smaller rolls.
The LAST thing you want is for your wedding to be remembered as the wedding that ran out of food. See if you can arrange to donate any leftovers to a homeless shelter if you are afraid of wasting food.
For a buffet always estimate more than if you were serving sit down. So 1/2 pound of pork per person and enough chicken for 250 sounds right. If you have leftovers then send them home with your guests. You have a plan for what happens if you have too much food, but what is your plan if you do not have enough?
I just had my wedding this month and we did smoked chicken and pulled pork so almost the same menu. We had 100 people and had 50 pounds of pork and 10 chickens cut into pieces so maybe a little less than 150. We had a fair amount of chicken left, but not much pork. We had lots of other sides and apps too, I would probably add a little more for 200 people.
