addendum

I think it is not considered good etiquette to eat a corner out of a dish of food before taking it to a potluck, so it went with a bit of trepidation. Was it cooked enough? Was it good?

I sat to eat besides my friend Coralee. I ask her about cooking from time to time, and I had talked to her about my potatoes.

She said they were good. I tasted mine and thought they could have been cooked a bit longer, and she said “No, they are fine.” When Coralee says that she means just that.

At the end of the meal there was two servings of apple crisp left, which with a dollop of ice cream (thanks Chris -- I don’t take ice cream to potlucks, but I sure eat it at home!), we took care of last night. It was good.

And we polished the potatoes off for breakfast.


But next time we have a potluck, I will remember what Coralee suggested and make the potatoes again! I asked daughter one about potlucks. I felt a bit intimidated by all of those good cooks in my group. She said find something I could do well do and work on it until it is good and every one will like it.

So, potatoes it is, ready or not!
