An Early Friends-Giving


It’s a Potluck
Just bring what you want
No instructions given
First came the appetizers
Cheese — soft, hard, crumbly,
cranberry laden
Round crackers, square crackers,
even octagonal crackers
Cheese, and salsa and bean dip
for chips and Tostitos
Brie and fig dip
Small canapés, nuts,  little pickles
Green and black olives
Out came  the casserole recipes
Some passed down—
through generations
A medley of gratin dishes
Rice and quinoa dishes
Of course meatballs bubbling
 in a sweet and sour sauce
A quiche next to sliced turkey
A resurrected string bean and
mushroom soup dish
A macaroni and cheese dish
One salad and two roasted vegetable
dishes— a healthy option
And I ate it all, a bit of this
And a smidgen of that
