The potluck had beautiful weather: sunny and warm. I sat out in the sun until I could feel my right forearm sizzling. And, sure enough, when I got to the awning-covered porch, I saw the red blotches. Ah, but everyone cooked for the potluck, and so of course I had to take a bit of everything. A week ago, I realized that beef could be on my menu again: I had stopped eating it because it played Hob with my "Lady Time" (migraines & projectile hurking). Now that I'm on the other side of The Change, there's no risk of that anymore. The host had cooked all the burgers Medium Rare, and mine tasted pretty good. Wonder if beef costs are anywhere near chicken and turkey costs?
Ed's cake -- his mother's recipe -- was delicious, so fruity yet not overly sweet. Hats off to Ed's Mom! The frosting, however, was probably enough for a second two-layer cake, and I'm certain that I ingested an entire month's worth of sweetener based on the volume of the frosting! Mm, mm, mm, mm, mm: tasty!
The Apple Spirals got compliments of both kinds: people thought they were pretty, and they ate pretty much all of them. Eating it up is my idea of a compliment to the "chef," so I feel even more encouraged to take those carving lessons. Oh, man, do I ever need a job!
