Hi, 
Make yourself comfortable. I am making a Jambalaya. Would you like some? It is almost ready.

Doono... does it have meat in it? what is it? I'm a vegeterina...
I'll have some 
if you have. And if you don't I'll have some 
(if you don't have , I'll bring some from my pitch, it's no too much of a walk (about 19 pitches), and the weather is resonable today 
)

Jambalaya is a spicy rice dish full of onions, garlic and sweet bellpeppers. Traditionally it is made with meat. However, I worked in a vegetarian restaurant for so long that some times I leave out meat or make two of everything. I have. No , how about muscadine wine? I have some 
which I made without eggs and some 
also.

Can I swap a 
for a portion of Jambalaya? It's one of my favourites and I haven't made it for such a LOOOOOOOOOOONG time I've almost forgotten what it tastes like!
BTW, vegetarian alternatives: Dreamweaver makes a wicked veggie lasagne which nobody would EVER believe was meat-free: it even fooled the cat (recently travelled to the Heavyside Layer, much missed)

That sounds like a fair trade. Come in and make yourself comfortable. * Places plate of Jambalaya on the table. The rest of the jambalaya is in the cast iron pot on the small fire pit behind the tent, and there is plenty so help yourself. Would you like some vegan for dessert?

Consider my arm twisted! 
I don't have any particular convictions for/against vegan/other 'PC' foods, I just eat what I like .
This tends to include just about anything!

I made vegetarian jambalaya this time. The cake is pineapple upside down cake because it is easy to make. It didn't need eggs. I really do cook the old vegetarian and vegan recipes sometimes just because I miss cooking them at work now that I work in the office instead of the kitchen (I don't miss the kitchen, just the food 
).

*Drops a six-pack of beer, grabs some jambalaya and makes off, since no-one seems to be around and he REALLY wants some jambalaya.*

did I miss someone? I only stepped out for a minute. Sure was nice of them to leave some beer.

* Enters tent carrying a crate of supplies and a backpack.
Now all I need is to start a fire and start warming this place a little. Christmas is over and I need some rest. I wonder if anyone else has come back after the holidays?
* Unpacks supplies:

PS Forgot why I came over: would you like Espharoth to light your fire for you 
?
Evangeline Pitch 24 if there is room
Evangeline Posted Dec 27, 2001
Thank you for the . Would you like some gumbo? I have chicken and andouille gumbo or seafood gumbo. I have rice to go with them. I just need to warm them a little. As soon as I start a fire they will be warmed in no time. There is some on the table if you would like some(my aunt makes a great coconut cake). Of course there is a chocolate cake too.

It would be great if Esparoth could start a fire in the pit out back. Then we could warm up and get something to eat. Would Esparoth mind?

Espharoth settles by the fire, bearing Dreamweaver. Not being needed in freeing Sgt. Mushroom from the hands of the Dawgs, he has had time to act as her personal Hair Dryer when she got out of the shower at the Campsite Ablution block
That should make a pretty efficient cooking fire for you, Evangeline! But 
what's this strange ingredient with the chicken in your gumbo? Chicken and andouille??????? is it veg? herb? fish? fowl? alien? who knows? who cares? am I even on the right MB? should I not be addressing these remarks to Questions Only?

Thanks for the fire. Hello Dreamweaver, nice to meet you. Hello Esparoth, you really are a stunning dragon.
Andouille(on-dew-EE) is a type of sausage. Would you like something to eat? What do dragons eat? I have some salads and tortilla casserole that are vegetarian.
How come Esparoth is not listed in the list of campers?

Yoh !!
Not been around the campsite for ages.
I've been manning the store for a couple of weeks.
Do I smell something ?

Would you like something to eat? There is and
