Kitties All--

Let's gather together, sugars and civvies, for the Full Buck Moon, also known as the Full Thunder Moon! Of course there will be traditional favorites as purrpared by my mentor, Chef Rusty, and the Kitchen Krews of yore at Buck-and-Thunder Moons past:
Appetizers: Adirondack Microbrews; Moontinis; Moonlight Cocktails; Wine Spritzers; Shrimp Cocktail; Turkey Rollups; Fondue; Assorted Paw Prints Pizzas. Sushi Bar manned by L&LL Sushi Chef Tux and featuring Chef Neko's fabulous sushi rolls made with the fish we catch.
Entrees: Hot dogs and Michigans; Big Mac's Burger Extravaganza with The Works; Grilled Lake Trout and Walleye; Chef Rusty's Thunderin Bison Chili; Chef Mannie's PNW poached Sockeye Salmon; Rat Pie.
Salads: Fiddlehead Fern Salad; Butthead's & Donny's field greens.
Desserts: Maggie's Blueberry Cheesecakes; Ice Cream & Tobey's Cimmamum cookies; Apple Torte a la Chief Pastry Chef Tess; Moon Pies; Surprise dessert a la Dessert Chef Sootie; Chef Stu's world Famous Catmint Parfaits.
Newer traditions include Leo's Chunky Tuna and Salmon Ice Cream with Sardine Sprinkles, Chef Felix's Sweet and Savory Crunchy Crouton Toppers, Olive's Shoelaceghetti with a side of pickles, TinySolé's sister Cookie's cod brownies filled with catnip, PussCatDusty's crispy birds feet served on baked catnip wafers (mmmmm, crunchy!) as well as her sweet and sour skink tail vol-au-vents & freeze dried plain yoghurt balls, and Chef Felix's Mediterranean platter with crunchy falafel, mewli-tabouli (with catnip instead of parsley), and smoked papurrika hummouse. You'll find Bella's Catinis at the Tiki Hut.

If you're not quite feeline up for feasting and dancing the night away, then Taster Blanket Coordinator Idjit, Taster-Kitchen Liaison Roxi, Taster Blanket Greeter Olive, and their helpers will find you a comfy spot on the Taster Blankets for quieter festivities and lighter fare.

The taster blankies are the purrfect place to view the Circle of Remembrance at midnight, when the veil thins and we can purrceive our loved ones who have Gone Ahead partying with us. Last year's Full Buck Moon was my mentor Rusty's first full moon at the Bridge; I sure do miss working with him on the Kitchen Krew. Tonight our dear old friend Deputy Squallie is going to be bringing a very, very special guest to the party at the Bridge.

Momma got me a new apron! It has orange kitties on it (she likes orange kitties). It also came with nifty forelimb guards. The fur hasn't fully grown in from where I had my IVs when I was in the hospital, so I 'purrciate being able to purrtect my forelimbs when I'm pulling croutons out of the oven.

Party down with your purring selves!

AMEOWNCEMENTS!

Roxi's sister Luna is our new Kitchen Krew Chieflet! Luna may be a civvie, but she comes from a long-time FDMB family with sugarcats on both sides of the veil. She's already doing great, learning all that goes on in the Kitchen and helping things to run smoothly--full moons get pretty hectic! I've attached her resume, and I'm sure you'll agree that she's a well-qualified Chieflet; purrhaps she'll want to become Chief at some point.
Luna has just whispered that she would be happy to join the Krew if a civvie is allowed to be on the team because she's grown up with a diabetic cat in the house so she knows how to make low carb food. She's not sure about being a Chief because she's only really a baby yet, but she'd be happy to help with whatever is needed to help keep all our sugar cats well-fed and happy.

I think we should take a vote on who we think would make a great kitchen krewe cheif:)
Let everyone know who you have in mind! (Anyone may vote.)
 
Roxi sez I can write our post this time! :cat: I'm very excited to join the Krew and start learning all I need to know to be the most help I can be in the Kitchen! The menu looks yummy and I've had a big sleep ahead of the party so I have lots of energy to run around and help with everything. Roxi is, of course, here too ready for her liaison duties. And the kittens are all dressed in their party gear and ready to help entertain the kitties on the Taster blankets under their Mom, Ruby's supervision. Licorice sez she's going to hang out with some of the other cats she met while she was going to parties with Rosa and Regan. I'm so looking forward to this party - I love helping other kitties. And I get to see our dear Rosa and Regan who I've only been able to meet at the Circle but who Roxi sez were just as special while they were on dis side of da veil. ~Luna

Welcome, our new cheflet, if u need any help Bella is always available to make catinis and sardine smoothies at the tiki hut
 
Idjit is digging in the closet for his sequined with sparkly laces, lightweight lumberjack dancing boots for this momentous occasion. I can hear him thumping, and bumping and muttering under his breath right now. He told me to let everybody know he will be there to help any kitty at the taster blanket with whatever they want or need. He sez "Welcome" to Luna and she will be a great Kitchen Krew Chieflet. He's looking forward to the food, drink, dancing and giving gentle hugs to all the kitties on the Taster Blanket.

Deputy Squallie is bringing a very special guest to the Circle of Remembrance? Idjit asked me why I have wet eyes. And I told him to pay close attention tonight, send lots of love to our friends on the other side of the veil, and give Momma's love to the special guest.
 
You're doing great, Chieflet Luna! I hope you and the rest of your family are having fun! I hope the other kitties don't get tired of it if you and Roxi are always talking shop now at home.

Idjit, you're first-rate, as always. Please give your momma a purr from me.

Bella, can I get a sardine smoothie extra crunchy?

... Time for the Circle of Remembrance: Purr-purr-purr-purr-purr.

Party on till dawn, kitties!
 
Katie was there and loved the Full/Buck Thunder Moon party and all the festivities. Chef Luna did a great job, and Katie was honored to see her big sis's Maggie's Blueberry Cheesecakes on the menu. All the food was to die for said Katie. Loved Felix's beautiful apron with the orange kitties. What a party and night to remember, and the Circle of Remembrance so spiritual and beautiful. Thank you Chef Felix.:bighug::bighug::bighug:
 
Dancer, Bella and Spunky came home at sunrise. Before they settled in for naps and requests for a “light breffis later, please,” they said the Full Buck Moon party was the cats meow, the fuds great and that Sootie outdid herself with her summer wild flower parfait surprise dessert.

They were tickled pink to be with old friends and new, to help in the kitchen krew (thank you, cheflette Luna!) and got very tear eyed when they spoke of the circle of remembrance and how wonderful it was to be with old friends and new.

Thank you all ❤️❤️❤️❤️
 
Luna came in very tired, but also very hyped this morning. She tried to tell me everything in a rush before she went off for a long sleep but I've got more sense out of her now she's woken up. She had a wonderful time and really enjoyed working with the Krew. And she's super-excited because Rosa and Regan shared their extra special secret recipe with her so she can make that for future parties. She's busy in the kitchen now making a trial batch and she says she'll tell me what it is once she has it perfected. The other cats had a wonderful time too and have been laying around the house all day sleeping off the excess food and dancing.
