STIS: What dish should I prepare and bring to a potluck memorial on Saturday?

Posted by Reluctant Cynic (aka ReluctantCynic) Aug 3 '23, 08:39

It's a "celebration of life" at a lakeside picnic shelter, and it's going to be damn hot that day.

I get so worried about bringing "the wrong dish" to these types of events especially and my brain is in decision-lock.
