The Roup 200 Party: A Post

The Roup 200 party was an incredible success!!

It was this band's first show ever, during which Autumn got Crowd Surfed:


The kitchen was nicely decorated for the event:



here's Lucy putting the finishing touches on Seth's potluck contribution:



of course she herself baked some delicious confections in celebration of the birthdays of the night: Rouper RJ, Roupie Becca, and child of Jay-Z and Beyonce "Blue Ivy":



later erik showed off his "Who Cares" tattoo:




luckily Seth remembered to remind everyone that, due to the hard economic times, we can't afford to have anyone slip on the ice outside:






and finally the party started and many good times were had:












the night ended when the band Keroaan, from Philadelphia, created an insane noise laser show in the basement:




and of course we enjoyed a traditional Sunday brunch in the morning:






HERE'S TO ANOTHER YEAR AND ANOTHER HUNDRED POSTS!!

Farmer Craig Goes To Jail (For Eating Too Much Food)

Today at Roup House, this guy:




made and ate this many pierogies:



as well as 3 large veggie dogs, chili, and a batch of chocolate pretzels.
What do you get when you change the G in gourmet to an R, cross off the bottom right line of the next R to make a P, then delete the MET ? 
ROUP !

Why this play on words?
Because Roupers are gourmet people. Or in other words, they are funkadelic, super great, and cool. They are gourmet. 
Haven't heard gourmet in that sense before? Get used to it.
(examples: Kate Bush is gourmet. Meaningful conversations in Manhattan subway terminals are gourmet. This blog in fact too is very much gourmet. You are because you are reading it. Portland used to be gourmet...etc, etc)

The View From RJ's Room


Holy crap is it snowing here in Pizzaborg! The first real snow of Winter 2011-12 and Roup is right in da middle of it. Here's hoping no one slips on a patch of ice, breaks their spine, and freezes to death unloved in the middle of the street! That would be a bummer!
