I know that's wrong, but I can't seem to move past it. <BR/><BR/>I once went to a holiday potluck party thrown by a journalists organization. It was of the pot no-luck variety, and I never went back for another meeting or event. <BR/><BR/>Pasadena Adjacent made those sticky cereal treats, reminiscent of her days at Carver Elementary School. She'll be tickled to know you liked them.Susan Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12178330935523896363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5164604238866965101.post-92156759782291182142009-04-01T14:08:00.000-07:002009-04-01T14:08:00.000-07:00Hoo boy - have I been to those "pot no-lucks"! The...Hoo boy - have I been to those "pot no-lucks"! The nadir was a church potluck that featured cold spaghetti, drained but still in the pot, in all its gummy, stuck-together glory. A tepid jar of warmed-up Ragu sat nearby. My Italian-American husband almost walked out then and there. ;-)<BR/><BR/>This event couldn't have been more different. I have to say that the berry cake was simply to die for. I sliced off a bite and then had to follow up with a real piece. <BR/><BR/>Someone else brought what looked like cornflakes dipped in a caramel sauce. Oh my goodness, that was wicked!Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17451652843448766614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5164604238866965101.post-46354947439743885352009-04-01T08:35:00.000-07:002009-04-01T08:35:00.000-07:00AH, what's the world coming to?
