It's pasta, filled with stuff! There may be appetizers of other stuff filled with stuff and/or desserts of stuff filled with stuff as well. All I'm saying is prepare to eat stuff that may or may not be stuffed in other stuff or outside of other stuff*. This is a complicated menu so please RSVP by Thursday the 12th if you're coming so I can get a head count. BYOB SOYFB etc. White tie optional**.
*There will be zero turducken, and no Oreo Double Stuff. That would be silly.
**Extremely optional. If we're being honest, it'll probably cause some mockery.
