SUMMARY:Old Socks >>> New Friends
DESCRIPTION:Around The World In 80 Bites\, Nibbles and Sips\n\nTwo great fe
 elings about starting the new year - clearing out the old and bringing in t
 he new.  Here's your chance to enjoy a slightly weird combo of the two...\n
 \nBring your old socks and make some new friends.  We're taking one and mak
 ing it into the other. New friends don't really make good old socks...or do
  they?  Well\, we'll try it the other way first.  \n\nWe're going to make "
 Stupid Sock Creatures" (quirky\, lovable figures from old\, new\, used\, ki
 ds' outgrown\, outused\, 1/2 a pair\, orphaned\, holey and holy\, too small
 \, too big\, too ugly\, and Goodwill specials socks.  The creatures you cre
 ate and/or the fellow sock enthusiasts you meet can become your new friends
 .  If you don't wash your socks before you come\, I can't guarantee it tho.
 \n\nBring every sock you can scrounge up.  Clear out the sock drawer of all
  the orphans.  Ladies (and some men :) don't forget your old nylons\, leggi
 ngs\, tights\, etc..  Parents - kids outgrown ones\, especially baby ones. 
  Guys\, rid your grandpa's drawers of those holed socks\, especially the ox
 ford ones.\n\nAlso\, bring WHATEVER else!!!  Your lovable stupid sock creat
 ures will need clothes maybe\, hair\, teeth\, tongue(s)\, 2 eyes\, maybe 3\
 , 4...\, ears that hang way low\, accessories\, fashion statements\, warts\
 , weird appendages...  Whatever you can find in your odds and ends drawers 
 and closets\, bottom of the desk drawer\, workshop\, and cosmetic drawer\, 
 orphaned costume jewelry\, scarfs and ties out of style or those never in\,
  sewing basket overflow\, buttons you've been meaning to sew back on\, Happ
 y Meal toys\, game and toy pieces\, etc.\, etc.\, etc..\n\nTo give us a pil
 e to play in\, bring any old clothes a toss away from the trashcan\, especi
 ally t-shirts and kids' clothes\, yarns\, threads\, fibers or any sort\, ri
 bbons\, buttons\, elastic\, rubber bands\, wire\, string\, beads\, baubles\
 , and bangles\, and anything that's lying around the house waiting for spri
 ng cleaning.\n\nI'll have some staple tools and supplies\, but if you have 
 pins and needles\, scissors\, glue\, hot glue guns and glue sticks\, please
  bring.  I'll be collecting $3 to buy a bunch of stuffing to stuff our crea
 tures as well as our friends (light appetizers and drinks).  Or you can bri
 ng a bottle or dish to share instead.\n\nCome on over around 6-ish or whene
 ver you wake from your NY's celebration's hangover.  Please check RSVP's fo
 r rides offered and needed.\n\nHave a merry and a happy and a safe\,\nrené\
 n\nHere's a link to the original creator.  I will have his book for all who
  need inspiration.\n\nhttp://www.stupidcreatures.com/gallery.html\n\nGresha
