Every once in awhile I long for the “Good Ol’ days.” I am not even really sure what that means. I think it means I am missing my family and friends. I think it means I miss being intimate with my friends and family. Maybe it means I miss having real conversations with my friends and family. When these feelings get strong enough I host a potluck dinner party. It’s fun to ask my friends and family to bring foods that represent their culture or foods that are special to their family. Maybe they will bring Grandma’s famous cake recipe to share with everyone. To add more interest I ask each guess to share the dish’s history and what it means to their family. With everyone pitching in with the meal no one feels overwhelmed or overworked. Go get your pen and pad and start making out your guest list right now. Relax, enjoy and have some fun.
