Potluck Pillows

"You know, Mark, your tabouli salad makes us look bad."

"I've got the wine."

"The invitation says for us not to bring anything to the potluck."

I found an old copy of "Gourmet" magazine in the O'Brian's recycling. They stopped publishing. Gourmet. But I'll have a dynamite recipe for the potluck. All I see are parties of handsome youthes at rustic tables. Gourmet. They're all attractively enjoying the good life. None of them seem to have jobs. Gourmet. Perhaps that's why the magazine went out of business. Definately no one from our block.

"Oh, no - Karen baked a cake so dense that not even light can escape."

"Where do we put Desserts?"

'Oh, and I suppose I'm the only one who's ever heard it's a 'dog eat dog world'?'

Come on, honey. The neighborhood potlucks are fun. Fun?! Everyone brings something simple. Totally stress-free. Ha! Last year you made lemon-stuffed slow roasted sea bass with guacamole cilantro chutney. I won't do that again! Guacamole is over. Avocado grapefruit coulis will work.

"I told you we were going down too deep!"

"I like that you all brought enthusiasm, but did anyone bring food?"

"Honey - get the smoke can. The guests are starting to swarm all over the bee hives again."

'Marcie has her own way of cooking ribs low and slow--she takes them with her to the tanning salon.'

'Fred, everybody is here!'

"Why is it that every time we get invited to a pot luck, they expect us to bring deviled eggs?"

"Stupid thing won't light."

We're sunk. Everyone's supposed to bring their Grandma's best dish to the potluck. Don't panic. Helen's Grandma was from Scotland. Yeah. But the Patakis cook Indian feasts. And the Mercantis still make 10 course Italian dinners. What was your Granny's specialty? Jell-o cube salad. Mmm ... sweet or savory?

'Dear, some friends dropped by for potluck.'

"That reminds me. The church pot luck dinner is Sunday."

We're off to the Wells' potluck! All the neighbors will be there. Whoop-dee-do. Hey! We're building community. So you don't mind if we do, too? Of course not! We support your good citizenship. Good! 'Cause all the neighborhood kids are coming over here.
